This is a photographic negative produced by photographer Ian Beesley.

This was part of a project called 'Thackray Remembered' (Thackray 2011) which was commissioned by the Thackray Medical Museum to document the closure of a Thackray factory which manufactured hip and knee replacements. It was taken over by the American company DePuy who moved production to China.

This image depicts a man holding a tool, possibly a pair of pliers, in one hand while holding some kind of component in the other. A magnifying lamp is on, illuminating the rounded object on which he's working. The lamp is obscuring the worker's upper body and head.
