EDITORS COMMENTS
In this line engraving from the late 18th century, titled "COLONIAL PLUMBER" we are transported back in time to colonial America. The image depicts a skilled craftsman, a colonial American plumber, diligently at work with the assistance of indentured servants. The scene showcases the bustling activity of daily life in a burgeoning colony. The plumber is perched atop a ladder, showcasing his expertise and dedication to his trade. With focused determination, he attends to the intricate plumbing system while his assistants dutifully support him. This print offers us an intriguing glimpse into the world of colonial industry and highlights the importance of skilled labor during that era. It also sheds light on the practice of indentured servitude prevalent at that time, where individuals would work under contractual agreements for a set period in exchange for passage to America or other benefits. As we admire this historical artwork by The Granger Collection, it serves as a reminder of how far our society has come in terms of technological advancements and labor practices. It prompts us to reflect on the contributions made by craftsmen like this colonial plumber who played an integral role in shaping early American communities. Through its detailed depiction and rich historical context, this print invites viewers to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved and gain insight into everyday life during America's formative years.
