EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1879 by an English photographer, transports us back to the bustling streets of Fetter Lane, rear of Barnards Inn in the City of London. The image showcases a slice of Victorian architecture and captures the essence of urban life during that era. The focus is on the exterior of Barnards Inn, with its upper floor windows visible. The inn stands tall amidst a row of shops, each contributing to the vibrant street scene. This snapshot offers a glimpse into daily life as people go about their business - locksmiths tending to their trade, passersby strolling along the sidewalk, and shopkeepers attending to customers. The composition exudes an air of historical charm as it encapsulates both architectural beauty and everyday activities. It serves as a testament to England's rich heritage and provides valuable insight into how city dwellers lived over a century ago. Preserved by eLondon Metropolitan Archives and made available through Bridgeman Images, this print allows us to appreciate not only the technical prowess behind early photography but also its ability to capture moments frozen in time. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, we are reminded that even though times have changed drastically since 1879, some elements such as architecture and human interaction remain timeless threads connecting our past with our present.
