Mixing the Malt, 1872 - A Glimpse into Victorian Brewing Culture
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Mixing the Malt, 1872" offers a fascinating glimpse into the brewing process of yesteryears. Created by Gustave Doré as part of his renowned book "London: A Pilgrimage" this engraving takes us back to Barclay, Perkins and Company brewery in Park Street, Southwark. In this snapshot of 19th-century England, we witness a group of barechested men diligently mashing malt with spades inside the brewery. Their semi-dressed attire reflects their dedication to their craft while showcasing social class distinctions prevalent during that era. The image captures not only the physical labor involved but also highlights teamwork as these men work together to create liquid gold. Doré's exceptional attention to detail transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the tools and equipment used for brewing during this period. From large vats filled with ingredients to various implements scattered around them - every element tells a story about British brewing heritage. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork by Gustave Doré, it becomes evident that it is more than just an illustration; it is a testament to London's rich history and industrial prowess. This photograph print serves as a reminder of how far our society has come since those days while honoring the craftsmanship and dedication that went into creating one of Britain's most beloved beverages - beer.
