EDITORS COMMENTS
A charming snapshot of the past, this image transports us back in time to the bustling heart of Covent Garden in London during the early 1900s. The focus of this photograph is T.A. Dickson & Co., a renowned court florist establishment that graced the streets of the area with its elegant presence. The advertisement, dated 1901, showcases an array of exquisite floral arrangements displayed in the shop window. The delicate blooms, expertly arranged in elegant vases and baskets, exude an air of sophistication and refinement. The vibrant colors and intricate designs of the flowers are a testament to the skill and artistry of the florists who crafted them. The royal crest emblazoned on the shop sign adds an extra touch of prestige and exclusivity to the establishment. It is believed that the royal connection was a significant selling point for T.A. Dickson & Co., as the monarchy held great influence and prestige during this era. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the fashion and social scene of the time. The well-dressed gentlemen and ladies who can be seen passing by the shop window add to the sense of elegance and opulence. The horse-drawn carriages and street vendors in the background further enhance the authenticity of the scene. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich history and traditions of the floristry industry in London during the early 1900s. It invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of Covent Garden as we step back in time and marvel at the artistry and craftsmanship of T.A. Dickson & Co. court florists.
