EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of High Point, North Carolina. Taken in 1936 by Lewis Hine, an influential American photographer known for his commitment to social reform, this image showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of the Tomlinson Chair Manufacturing Co. In the photograph, we see a skilled hand carver meticulously creating a master model for a multiple carver buffet post. The attention to detail is remarkable as every stroke of the chisel brings life to the wood. This snapshot not only highlights the talent and dedication of these artisans but also provides insight into their role within society during that era. Hine's use of photography as a tool for social change becomes evident when considering the context in which this image was taken – during America's Great Depression. By capturing moments like this one, Hine shed light on working conditions and advocated for labor rights reforms. As we gaze upon this historical gem from our Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how individuals used their skills to contribute to their community amidst challenging times. It serves as a reminder that even during periods of adversity, human creativity and resilience prevail.
