EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Oxford Circus Flowers: Flower Girls on London's Oxford Street," transports us back in time to the early 1900s. Captured circa 1905 by an unknown photographer and sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, this image offers a glimpse into the historical floral trade that once thrived on the bustling streets of London. The scene unfolds at Oxford Circus, a major road junction and popular tourist destination in the heart of the city. The iconic Marble Arch and the impressive Selfridges department store can be seen in the background, adding to the sense of London's rich history. At the forefront of the image, a group of young flower girls proudly display their colorful blooms, each wearing traditional floral headdresses and carrying baskets filled with roses, carnations, and other seasonal blossoms. Their cheerful expressions and vibrant attire stand in stark contrast to the drab, monochrome clothing of the passersby, highlighting the allure of their trade. The flower girls' presence on Oxford Street was a common sight in London during this era. They would sell their flowers to the public, often to those attending the theater or simply enjoying a leisurely stroll. The tradition dates back to the 17th century and was an essential part of London's street life until the mid-20th century. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the historical trades that once defined London's streets and the vibrant, diverse community that brought them to life. Today, Oxford Circus remains a bustling hub of activity, but the flower girls and their colorful blooms have largely been replaced by modern commerce. Nonetheless, this image invites us to pause and appreciate the rich history that continues to shape our cities and the traditions that have long since passed.
