EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view of Catford House, captured between 1885 and 1887, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the Victorian era. The photograph, part of the esteemed Cecil Victor Shadbolt collection of lantern slides dating from 1882-1892 housed in the Historic England Archive, showcases the grandeur and architectural splendor that defined this period. From a height of approximately 1900 feet, we are treated to an expansive vista encompassing not only Catford House but also its surrounding streets on Catford Hill in Lewisham. The vertical composition allows us to appreciate the intricate details and ornate features adorning this magnificent structure. The image evokes a sense of wonder as we marvel at how our ancestors experienced their world from such lofty heights. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and technological advancements during this time. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene, it is impossible not to be transported back in time; imagining horse-drawn carriages traversing cobblestone streets below while men donning top hats stroll along with ladies adorned in elegant Victorian attire. This print provides us with a rare opportunity to connect with history through visual storytelling. It reminds us that even though times have changed dramatically since then, there is still much beauty and fascination to be found in exploring our past.
