EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Bristol, from St. Augustines Quay, 1898" takes us back to the enchanting streets of Bristol in the late 19th century. The creator remains unknown, but their work beautifully captures the essence of this bustling British port city. The image showcases a picturesque view of St. Augustine's Quay with its charming waterfront lined by sailing ships ready for trade and transport. In the background, we see an array of buildings that make up Bristol's distinctive skyline - a testament to its rich history and architectural beauty. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, it is impossible not to notice the presence of people going about their daily lives along the quay. Their silhouettes add depth and humanity to the scene while hinting at the vibrant activity that must have characterized this busy area. Moreover, standing tall amidst this lively atmosphere is a magnificent church representing Christianity's enduring influence on Bristol's culture and heritage. This remarkable engraving was originally featured in "Our Own Country, Volume I" published by Cassell and Company Ltd. , London in 1898. It serves as both a historical record and an artistic expression capturing a moment when transportation by water played a vital role in shaping cities like Bristol. Through this evocative print created over a century ago by an anonymous artist, we are transported back to an era where tradition met progress on these very streets – forever immortalized for us to appreciate today thanks to Heritage Images'
