Turnips & Carrots ho, Cries of London, c1870 - A Glimpse into 19th Century Street Life
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from the late 19th century takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London. In this vivid scene captured by an anonymous photographer, we witness a vibrant display of everyday life and commerce. A turnip and carrot seller stands proudly next to his trusty donkey, laden with baskets filled to the brim with fresh produce. The man's weathered face tells tales of hard work and perseverance as he calls out his wares to passersby. Standing beside him is a woman holding a bunch of turnips, perhaps contemplating her purchase or simply observing the lively street activity. The image showcases not only the variety of vegetables available but also highlights the diverse occupations that thrived in Victorian England. The colorful dresses worn by both men and women add a touch of vibrancy against the backdrop of cobblestone streets. This print is part of "Cries of London" an iconic series capturing street cries and scenes from daily life during this era. It serves as a reminder that even amidst rapid industrialization, traditional trades like selling vegetables on street corners remained vital for sustenance. Preserved by Francis Wheatley's lens through an intricate photo mechanical process, this historical artifact now resides at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery in London. It offers us a glimpse into our ancestors' lives while celebrating their resilience in carving out livelihood
