Description
Colorized photo from 1899
Original title: Young men training in blacksmithing
Photographer: Frances Benjamin Johnston
Location: Hampton, Virginia
This is the blacksmithing course in a school in Hampton Virginia. They had a number of classes that included machinists, clocksmithing, wheelwrights and lots of other fun trades like that.
Each person had their own forge and anvil in this class, I would imagine they made horseshoes and the like. There seems to be some projects on the walls in the background.
I found some colors for forges like these, and while most of them had no color, at least one was red, and I just wanted color of some kind.
I don't quite get why they have windows that have a curtain on the outside of the window.
