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 wearing glasses, gloves, a watch and the DePuy uniform as seen through the plastic of a container top. A pipe of some kind runs into the back of container which obscures the work he is doing.
