Description

The story of industrialization is told from an unusual angle. Small toys reflect the big social changes. The mechanical production by means of steam power, the new mobility through the railway, the electrification of cities, the advent of branded goods, the militarization of society and the codification of gender-specific role models in the imperial era, all this also took place in the bourgeois children's room. Despite all the fascination that the detailed, realistic and sometimes opulent toys of our great-grandparents still exert on us today, one of the darkest sides of industrialization is hidden in the toys of this time: home and child labor.
