EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, dated 16th August 1884, showcases a series of breathtaking views of the Marshall and Snelgrove Department Store located on Oxford Street in London. The store, which was a popular destination for both locals and tourists, was known for its grandeur and innovative importation of American retail concepts. The image captures the store's impressive facade, adorned with intricate architectural details and large display windows. The first view displays the main entrance, where shoppers would gather to enter the store. The second view offers a glimpse into the store's interior, revealing a bustling scene of shoppers browsing through various departments. Marshall and Snelgrove was established in 1856 and quickly gained a reputation for offering a wide range of goods, from textiles and clothing to furniture and household items. The store's success can be attributed to its forward-thinking approach to retail, including the introduction of self-service shopping and the use of electric lighting. The engraving also highlights the store's proximity to other popular London landmarks, such as Selfridges and the British Museum. The lively atmosphere of Oxford Street is evident in the image, with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians filling the streets. This historical engraving provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the shopping experience of London during the late 19th century. It serves as a reminder of the rich history of retail in the city and the role that Marshall and Snelgrove played in shaping the modern shopping experience.
