EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 1950s, capturing a nostalgic flashback of Horsefair, Bristol. The image showcases the bustling street scene with Lewis's store (now Primark) under construction in the background. Today, only the remaining trees on the edge of St James churchyard serve as a point of reference from this bygone era. Transportation plays a prominent role in this snapshot of history. Buses and cars fill the streets, creating a sense of congestion that was characteristic of urban life during this time period. It is fascinating to observe how different these vehicles were compared to their modern counterparts. The statue located at the roundabout catches our attention - it depicts Samuel Morley, an influential Bristol MP who has since been relocated to Lewins Mead. This statue serves as a reminder of important figures from Bristol's past and adds another layer of historical significance to this photograph. As we delve into this piece captured in black and white, we are transported back to mid-20th century England. This print allows us to reflect upon how much our surroundings have changed over time while evoking feelings of nostalgia for those who remember or long for simpler times gone by.
