EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures the essence of a Victorian London street scene, featuring a costume and basket seller going about her daily trade. The woman is dressed in a simple brown dress with a crisp white apron tied around her waist, exuding an air of hardworking class. Her shoulders are wrapped in a vibrant red scarf or shawl, adding a pop of color to her otherwise plain attire. A cotton bonnet sits atop her head, completing the traditional look of a working woman from circa 1870. The historical significance of this image is palpable, offering viewers a glimpse into the everyday life of women during this era. It serves as a reminder of the struggles and resilience of those who made their living through street trades like selling baskets. Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly captured the details and nuances of this scene, allowing us to appreciate the craftsmanship and artistry that went into creating such intricate costumes for everyday wear.
