EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1902, captures the bustling energy of Piccadilly Circus in London during the early 1900s. The iconic statue of Eros, with its wings spread in the background, stands as a symbol of love and desire amidst the chaotic scene. The statue, which was unveiled in 1893, has long been a focal point of the circus, drawing crowds from all corners of the city. In the foreground, a busy street scene unfolds. Horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians navigate the narrow streets, while a double-decker bus makes its way through the throng. The bus, with its distinctive red color and ornate design, is an early example of public transportation in London. Adorning the side of the bus is an advertisement for "The Gay Lord Quex," a play by Arthur Wing Pinero. Pinero was a renowned English playwright of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and "The Gay Lord Quex" was one of his most popular works. The play, which premiered in 1896, was a comedy of manners that explored themes of love, class, and morality. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past. The hats, clothing, and vehicles of the time transport us back to a bygone era, while the energy and excitement of the scene remain as vibrant and captivating as ever. This image, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of England in the early 1900s.
