EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling city of Hull in 1895. The image showcases the vibrant pier and front, offering a glimpse into the transportation and trade activities of that era. Against a backdrop of towering trees and the serene coast, we see men going about their daily routines, adding life to this historic scene. The photograph captures an important moment in time when Hull was a thriving port city in England. It reflects the significance of maritime trade during the 19th century, with ships docking at the mouth of Humber Estuary. The presence of carriages on the road reminds us of how transportation played a crucial role in connecting people and goods. As we explore this monochrome masterpiece, it is impossible not to appreciate its artistic value. The composition beautifully balances nature and human activity, highlighting both man-made structures like piers and natural elements such as sapling trees along the seafront. This print is not just a visual delight; it also holds historical importance as part of George Newnes Limited's book "Round the Coast". Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand what life was like in Hull over a century ago. It serves as a testament to Britain's rich coastal heritage while inviting us to reflect on how far we have come since then.
