EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Piccadilly Circus in London, as it looked in 1907. The bustling urban scene is a fascinating blend of the old and the new, showcasing the historic statue of Eros in all its glory, surrounded by the chaos and excitement of the bustling streets. At the heart of the image, a horse-drawn cab makes its way through the crowd, its driver urging the animal onward with a firm hand. The cab passes by a motor bus, a symbol of the burgeoning transport revolution that was transforming the city's streets. The contrast between the horse and the motor vehicle is a poignant reminder of the rapid technological advancements that were taking place during this era. The statue of Eros, a popular tourist attraction even then, stands proudly in the center of the circus, its wings outstretched as if to embrace the energy and vitality of the city. The iconic landmark, which has become synonymous with London, adds a sense of history and tradition to the scene. The roads and streets of Piccadilly Circus are filled with people, carriages, and vehicles, creating a vibrant and dynamic atmosphere.
