Pic of the week!


I was happy to stumble across this photograph today during an on-line hunt for a cloth measuring tape. Taken in 1950 it shows a London seamstress with the tools of her trade. This image, one of a set of 252 black and white photographs assembled by the photographer, was shown in an exhibition at the J. Paul Getty Museum last year called "Irving Penn - Small Trades"
