EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Strand and Charing Cross, 1897" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London at the turn of the 19th century. The image captures a vibrant scene with horse-drawn buses and carts traversing The Strand and Charing Cross. As we delve into this snapshot of history, we notice prominent establishments such as Midland Bank, West Strand Telecoms, and Chapple & Mantell silversmith & goldsmiths lining the street. Amidst the hustle and bustle, an intriguing detail catches our eye - an advertisement for Alhambra on one of the passing buses. This glimpse into popular entertainment at that time adds another layer to this already fascinating composition. The photographer's skillful capture allows us to witness not only the architectural beauty of City Westminster but also provides a window into everyday life during this era. People fill every corner of the frame; their presence adding depth and authenticity to this historical moment frozen in time. As we immerse ourselves in this remarkable photograph from Fine Art Finder's collection by Bridgeman Images, it serves as a reminder that even though times have changed dramatically since 1897, certain aspects of city life remain constant - busy streets filled with people going about their daily routines.
