EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs Sullivan, affectionately known as 'Auntie of the Garden,' was a renowned character in the historic Covent Garden Market in London during the early 1900s. Her distinctive presence and unwavering dedication to protecting the goods and carters' whips of the market earned her a famous nickname. In this evocative photograph, taken around 1910, we see an elderly Mrs Sullivan wrapped in a shawl, her weathered face etched with the lines of age and experience. She sits on a cart, the familiar clatter of horses' hooves and market activity in the background. With a protective hand, she cradles a whip, a symbol of her role as guardian of the carters and their horses. The market, a bustling hive of activity, was a place of trade where the exchange of goods took place amidst the cacophony of sounds and the mingling of smells. The carters, often away from their carts, relied on Mrs Sullivan to keep an eye on their whips and other valuable items, ensuring their return from the market unscathed. Mrs Sullivan's role was not just a means of earning a living but a labor of love, a testament to her dedication and commitment to the community. Her presence added a layer of warmth and familiarity to the market, making it a place not just of commerce, but of history and tradition. As the market transformed over the years, Mrs Sullivan remained a steadfast presence, a link to the past, and a reminder of the human stories that underpinned the bustling trade of Covent Garden. Her legacy continues to inspire and captivate, a testament to the enduring spirit of this iconic market.
