EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures a scene straight out of history - two men walking through the night, carrying a flaming cresset to light their way. In the early 15th century, before the invention of modern street lighting, people relied on various forms of portable illumination to navigate dark streets after sunset. The cresset, a basket filled with flammable material mounted on a pole, was one such method used to provide light in the darkness.
The image evokes a sense of mystery and intrigue as the men make their way through the dimly lit streets, their faces illuminated by the flickering flames. The historical significance of this moment is palpable, offering viewers a glimpse into how our ancestors once moved about in the nighttime hours.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from centuries past, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of technology and convenience. Yet there is something undeniably romantic and nostalgic about these simpler times when even something as mundane as walking down a street required careful consideration and preparation.
Mary Evans Prints Online has beautifully preserved this piece of history for us to admire and reflect upon, allowing us to connect with our past in a truly unique way.
