The Industrial Revolution transformed the textile industry in England. This engraving by Edward Goodall (1795-1870), originally titled "Manchester, from Kersal Moor," after a painting of W. Wylde, shows numerous industrial chimneys in the town of Manchester, England, which earned the nickname "Cottonopolis," following its transformation. Image in the public domain, from Wikimedia.
