EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed print showcases the Arms of the Worshipful Company of Cordwainers, a prestigious guild in England's craft industry. The image, captured by an anonymous English School artist in the 20th century, exudes modernity and captures the essence of boot and shoe manufacturing during that time. The lithograph illustration was originally featured in "The Modern Boot and Shoe Maker" publication by Gresham in 1917. It beautifully depicts the intricate artistry involved in shoemaking, highlighting the skill and craftsmanship required to create these essential items. The composition is filled with rich colors that bring life to every element – from boots and shoes to cobblers' tools. This visual feast not only celebrates the cordwainer trade but also pays homage to traditional handicrafts practiced within guilds. As we delve into this early twentieth-century scene, we are transported back to a time when British industries flourished. The image serves as a reminder of Britain's proud heritage as a hub for quality footwear production. Displayed proudly within a private collection, this print offers us glimpses into an era defined by industrial progress yet deeply rooted in age-old traditions. It stands as both a testament to human ingenuity and an ode to those who dedicated their lives to perfecting their craft – creating beautiful shoes one stitch at a time.
