EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, titled "The Hard, Portsmouth," is a breathtaking glimpse into the past, brought to us by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. The image transports us back in time to the late Victorian or early Edwardian era, as evidenced by the period clothing and the use of lantern slides. The Hard, a historic area in the coastal city of Portsmouth, England, is depicted in all its glory in this photograph. The working harbor is bustling with activity, with ships of various sizes and shapes anchored in the water. Sailors in their distinctive uniforms can be seen working on the boats, while others are loading and unloading cargo. The photograph also showcases the beautiful architecture of the time, with tall, imposing buildings lining the shore. The intricate details of the brickwork and the ornate windows are a testament to the craftsmanship of the era. In the foreground, a man is seen carrying a lantern, adding to the overall sense of nostalgia and romance. The use of a lantern slide further enhances the vintage feel of the photograph. Lantern slides were a popular means of projecting images during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The technique involved placing a transparent slide with an image on it into a lantern, which was then used to project the image onto a screen or white wall. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document. It provides us with a unique insight into the daily life of Portsmouth during a bygone era. The Hard, Portsmouth, as depicted in this photograph, is a testament to the rich maritime history of the city and the resilience of its people.
