EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of The English Sewing Cotton Company. The image showcases the impressive architecture of their manufacturing facilities, namely the Belper Mills and Egerton Mills. These structures stand tall as symbols of industrial prowess, with their grandeur reflecting the company's success in textile production. The scene is bustling with activity as workers diligently carry out their tasks within the dye works. Sons of prominent figures like E. Ashworth and J. Strutt are seen contributing to this thriving enterprise alongside Messers Manlove from Lancashire and Bolton, showcasing a collaborative effort that spans across regions. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every line etched on paper brings life to each brick and beam that make up these mills. It is evident that great care was taken by the anonymous English School artist who created this piece for The Illustrated London News in November 1897. As we admire this print from a private collection, we are reminded of the significance of companies like The English Sewing Cotton Company during an era defined by industrialization and innovation. This artwork serves as a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship while also shedding light on an important chapter in textile history - one where quality sewing cotton was produced with utmost precision at these very mills.
