EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Fire brigade, 2nd April, 1914" takes us back in time to a dramatic night scene filled with emergency services and brave firefighters. The image was captured by Thomas E. & Horace Grant, two talented photographers of the 20th century. In this snapshot frozen in history, we witness the astonishing technique employed by these pioneering photographers. Using a flash fired by electricity while working with their camera shutter, they were able to capture the intensity of the moment with remarkable clarity. The photo showcases a team of firemen rushing into action as they respond to an urgent call. Startled horses pull their cart at full gallop through dimly lit streets as artificial lighting illuminates their path. The retractable ladder mounted on the cart adds an element of suspense to this nocturnal scene. The stunned expressions on both human and equine faces reveal the surprise caused by this innovative use of technology in photography during that era. It is fascinating how such advancements could simultaneously captivate and spook those witnessing it for the first time. As we gaze upon this historical gem from 1914, we are reminded not only of the bravery displayed by these firefighters but also of the incredible progress made in photographic techniques over time. This print serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and our constant pursuit of capturing life's most extraordinary moments through artistry and innovation.
