EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the late 19th century, specifically the 1890s, in Newcastle. The image showcases the magnificent architecture of the city's Free Library, a historical gem that still stands today. The photographer, an English artist from the 19th century whose identity remains unknown, has masterfully captured this iconic landmark. The library's grandeur is evident as its intricate details are highlighted against a backdrop of cloudy skies. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a late Victorian era scene where people would have gathered outside this cultural hub for knowledge and leisure. It serves as a testament to the importance placed on education and intellectual growth during that period. This photograph was originally featured in a booklet titled "Fine Art Photographic Views of Newcastle" around 1895. Preserved within a private collection until now, it offers us an invaluable glimpse into history. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its ability to transport us back to an era long gone. It reminds us how cities like Newcastle have evolved over time while preserving their rich heritage for future generations to cherish and learn from.
