EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and historical significance of Euston Arch in London during the late 19th century. The image, taken by the renowned photography firm York and Son between 1870 and 1900, showcases the impressive entrance to Euston Station as it once was, before its demolition in the 1960s. The central focus of the photograph is the majestic Euston Arch, designed by Philip Hardwick and completed in 1837. The arch served as the main entrance to the railway station and was a symbol of the grandeur and progress of the Victorian era. The intricately detailed columns and pillars, adorned with ornate decorations, frame the archway and add to its regal presence. In the foreground of the photograph, horse-drawn vehicles can be seen making their way along the cobblestone streets, adding a sense of activity and bustle to the scene. The horses and carriages, with their drivers in top hats and long coats, provide a stark contrast to the modern trains and sleek designs of today's transportation. The Euston Arch was a landmark not only for the railway industry but for the city of London as a whole. Its demolition marked the end of an era and the beginning of a new chapter in the history of transportation in the city. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and architectural beauty that once graced Euston Station and the importance of preserving the past for future generations to appreciate.
