A little while ago I posted a blog illustrating the traditional poem ‘Dashing away with the Smoothing Iron’ with eighteenth and nineteenth century illustrations of women at work. Some people criticised the illustrations as offering an idealised image of working women, I hope they like this better. Here is a traditional couplet, the first line less well known than the second
Man’s work lasts till set of sun
Woman’s work is never done
The Curious Archaeologist
