EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this evocative image of a fish shop in the heart of Norwich, captured during the Victorian or Edwardian era. The photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us to a bygone age with its intricate details and rich history. The shop's exterior is adorned with intricate woodwork, its windows displaying an array of fresh fish, expertly arranged on beds of ice. The shopkeeper, dressed in the fashion of the time, stands behind the counter, ready to serve his customers with a friendly smile. The cobblestone street outside is bustling with activity, horse-drawn carts and pedestrians jostling for space. The atmosphere is one of community and tradition, with the fish shop being a vital part of the daily lives of the people of Norwich. Fish was a staple food source during this period, and the shop would have been a regular stop for many families, ensuring they had fresh and sustainable produce for their meals. Despite the passage of time, this photograph captures the essence of Norwich's rich maritime heritage and the importance of the fish trade to the city's history. It serves as a reminder of the past and the role that small, family-run businesses played in shaping the communities we know today.
