EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1895 with this print of Smithfield Market, showcasing the bustling trade and historical significance of one of Britain's most iconic meat markets. The vast interior is filled with rows of carcasses hanging from hooks all down the central aisle, painting a vivid picture of the meat industry during this era.
The sheer size and scale of the market are evident in this image, as vendors go about their business amongst the hanging carcasses. The central aisle serves as a lifeline for merchants and customers alike, providing a glimpse into daily life at Smithfield Market over a century ago.
This snapshot captures not only the physicality of the market but also its rich history and importance within British trade. The sight of dead animals may be jarring to some, but it is an integral part of understanding the role that markets like Smithfield played in shaping our culinary traditions and economic landscape.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this piece of history through their prints online, allowing us to appreciate and reflect on how far we've come since 1895.
