Transcription
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 shows two men working at separate desks. They are both wearing glasses, ear defenders and glasses. Both of them seem to be doing similar working, working at a component with a sharp tool. Both of them are also assisted by a magnifying lamp to provide them light and improve their vision.
