Stepping into the Past - Harrods' New Home in 1849
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a bustling day in 1849, capturing the grand opening of Charles Henry Harrod's new grocery shop at its fresh premises in Knightsbridge, London. The image, preserved by Central Press/Hulton Archive/Getty Images, offers a glimpse into an era long gone. In this snapshot of history, we see a lively scene unfolding before our eyes. A hansom cab stands proudly outside the newly established store while elegantly dressed men and women stroll along the sidewalk. Young boys eagerly assist customers with their purchases as they navigate through the busy streets. The Western script sign hanging above the entrance announces "Harrods" marking this significant milestone for one of London's most iconic retail institutions. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and anticipation as shoppers flock to explore this new shopping destination. Despite being captured in monochrome tones, every detail comes alive within this remarkable photograph – from the intricate architecture of neighboring buildings to the expressions on people's faces. It serves as a testament to both Harrods' enduring legacy and its integral role within London's vibrant commercial landscape. As we gaze upon this historical gem from Fine Art Storehouse, it transports us back to a time when shopping was an experience steeped in tradition and elegance. This extraordinary piece invites us to reflect on how far we have come while cherishing our connection to our past heritage.
