EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Clare Market, London in 1895. The image showcases a shop and solar that have long since been demolished, but their presence is immortalized through this snapshot from history. Clare Market was once a vibrant area located in the parish of St Clement Danes, just west of Lincolns Inn Fields. At its heart stood a small market building constructed by Lord Clare around 1657. This photograph captures the essence of life during the Victorian era, with men dressed in traditional attire going about their daily activities. The street is adorned with charming lampposts that illuminate the scene, casting an enchanting glow on the shops and people passing by. A shopkeeper can be seen standing proudly outside his store wearing an apron, ready to serve customers who come seeking goods or trade. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this image, transporting us back to a bygone era when Clare Market thrived as a hub for commerce and community interaction. It serves as a poignant reminder of how cities evolve over time while still retaining glimpses of their rich past. This remarkable print is part of Sir Walter Besant's collection titled "London in the Time of Tudors" published in 1904 by Adam & Charles Black. It offers us an intriguing glimpse into British history and allows us to appreciate both the architectural beauty and human stories that unfolded within these now vanished walls.
