EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the vibrant streets of the 1870s, showcases the iconic figure of Hogarth's Pieman, a beloved trader known for his mouth-watering pies. Dressed in a worn apron and a distinctive hat, the Pieman holds aloft a large, ornate tray laden with an array of pies, each one steaming hot and irresistible. With a twinkle in his eye and a mischievous grin, he calls out to passersby, offering a "good pennyworth for a penny." The atmosphere is bustling and lively, with people of all ages and backgrounds gathered around, eager to sample the Pieman's culinary creations. The scene is a testament to the power of street food and the enduring appeal of a simple, delicious pie. This photograph, taken in 1876, captures a moment in time when the tradition of the Pieman and his pies was at its peak, and remains a cherished piece of history.
