EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the meeting of tailors and their subsequent strike at the Labour Exchange. The engraving, featured in "Le Petit Parisien" on March 3rd, 1901, is a testament to the power of collective action and the struggles faced by craftsmen during this time. The image showcases a public assembly filled with determined tailors, both men and women alike. Their faces reflect determination and resilience as they stand united against unfair working conditions. Among them is a young girl, symbolizing the intergenerational impact of these labor disputes. The composition skillfully portrays the intensity of emotions within this gathering. Each individual seems to have their own story etched onto their faces - stories of long hours, low wages, and exploitation that have brought them together for change. Through his artistry, Meaulle F. L (1844-1901) & Carrey (fl. 1900) beautifully capture this pivotal moment in time. This particular print now resides in a private collection curated by Stefano Bianchetti. As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are reminded not only of the struggles faced by these tailors but also of their courage to demand better treatment from employers. It serves as an enduring reminder that unity can bring about transformative change even in times when it feels impossible.
