EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Holborn Circus in London, circa 1900. The image beautifully captures a moment frozen in history, showcasing the juxtaposition between traditional modes of transportation and the modernizing cityscape. In the foreground, a hansom cab and a horsedrawn omnibus share the road, symbolizing an era when horse-drawn carriages were still prevalent alongside emerging motorized vehicles. The elegance of these transportations is highlighted by their intricate designs and meticulous craftsmanship. The Negretti and Zambra building on the left adds architectural charm to this lively scene. Its presence serves as a reminder that even amidst progress, remnants of old-world charm can still be found within rapidly evolving cities. Dominating the center of the road stands an equestrian statue of Prince Albert, paying homage to his significant influence on British society during his reign. This majestic monument not only adds grandeur but also acts as a focal point for both pedestrians and passing traffic. A medium-sized group of people can be seen going about their daily activities - men dressed in suits walking purposefully along with other individuals engaged in conversations or simply observing their surroundings. Their presence brings life to this snapshot from another era. London Stereoscopic Company has masterfully preserved this historical moment through their stereoscopic technique, allowing viewers to immerse themselves into this enchanting scene from over a century ago.
