These images belong to the Parsons? ?Women Labourers? photograph album, taken at Parsons? Works on Shields Road during the First World War.

In 1914, with the outbreak of war, Parsons? daughter Rachel, one of the first three women to study engineering at Cambridge, replaced her brother on the board of directors, and took on a role in the training department of the Ministry of Munitions, supporting the increasing amount of women taking on jobs in industry to support the war effort. More information about Rachel Parsons and Parsons? Works can be found in Great North Greats a guest post by David Wright.

Collection: Willard Dickerman Straight and Early U.S.-Korea Diplomatic Relations, Cornell University Library Title: Korean women on an outing Date: ca. 1904 Place: Asia: South Korea Type: Postcards/Ephemera Description: Two Korean women in traditional attire. The cloak is called essugae chimae or 'changot', which is a coat-style veil. Originally, the 'changot' was everyday wear for both kings and commoners. Since the time of King 'Sejo' (1417-1468), however, women began to wear the robe, and it then evolved as a veil for women. The inner and outer collars were symmetrical in shape, while the neckline and sleeve-ends were trimmed with a wide, white bias. The collar, ties and armpits were purple. This is a (hand-colored) photograph taken in a studio setting, produced for mass production. Source: Kwon, O-chang. Inmurhwaro ponun Choson sidae uri ot, 1998, p. 124.
