EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling atmosphere of Grote Markt, Nijmegen's central square, in the 1910s. The Waag building, a historic landmark in the Dutch city, dominates the scene. At that time, the Waag served as a meat market, and the image is filled with horse-drawn wagons laden with fresh produce and meat, ready for sale. The horses, with their powerful muscles rippling as they stand still, add to the scene's energy and vitality. The square itself is bustling with activity, with people milling about, likely doing their weekly shopping or socializing with neighbors. The Waag building, with its distinctive arches and tall, red-brick facade, stands proudly in the background, a testament to the city's rich history. The horses and wagons, the people and the market stalls, all come together to create a snapshot of life in Nijmegen during a bygone era. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the importance of local markets in connecting communities and providing essential resources, and it invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells that would have filled the air on a typical market day.
