EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving, dated May 26, 1877, captures the bustling scene outside Billingsgate Fish Market in London during the Victorian era. The image showcases an array of oyster boats, their masts standing proudly against the horizon, anchored along the River Thames. The boats are attended by lighters, smaller vessels used to transfer goods between larger ships and the shore. The market, a significant hub for fish and seafood imports, is located on the north side of the Thames in London's East End. The market's popularity is evident in the numerous boats docked along the river, all eager to unload their fresh catches for the eager crowds awaiting their daily supplies. The engraving offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the importance of the Thames as a vital transportation route for goods, particularly fish and seafood, into the heart of London. The oysters, a staple food for the city's residents, were sourced from both local waters and imported from Europe, as evidenced by the boats in the image. The intricate details of the engraving, from the textured water to the intricately rendered rigging on the boats, transport us back in time, allowing us to experience the sights and sounds of Billingsgate Market in the late 19th century.
