EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Leeds in the 19th century. The English School's engraving beautifully captures the essence of this vibrant city, showcasing its oldest house and a myriad of street scenes that tell tales of a bygone era. As we delve into the image, our eyes are immediately drawn to the corner of Briggate and Boar Lane, where architectural wonders stand tall against the backdrop of daily life. The intricate details on each building speak volumes about the craftsmanship and pride that went into their creation. The covered market is another focal point, with its lively atmosphere and stalls brimming with goods. It serves as a reminder of Leeds' rich history as a hub for trade and commerce. Kirkgate and Yorkshire's iconic Briggate also make an appearance, offering glimpses into everyday life during this period. People going about their business, horse-drawn carriages passing by - it all adds to the charm and authenticity captured within this frame. St. Peter's Church stands proudly amidst these scenes, providing solace and tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle. Its towering presence reminds us of Leeds' deep-rooted religious heritage. Through this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness Leeds at its most vibrant moment in history. It serves as a testament to how architecture can shape a city's identity while capturing snippets of ordinary lives lived long ago.
