EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling streets of Surrey in the 1840s with this print from Mary Evans Picture Library. The scene is alive with activity as idlers, promenading couples, a lady and her lap dog, a dog chasing a boy, and a porter carrying a heavy load all share the same space. In the background, three drunks stumble out of the Coal Hole pub clutching their pint pots.
The historical significance of this image is palpable - it offers a glimpse into everyday life in Britain during this era. The architecture of the buildings, the fashion of passersby, and even the behavior of those on the street all tell a story about society at that time.
As theater-goers make their way to catch a show at the Surrey Theatre nearby, we are reminded that entertainment has always been an important part of human culture. This snapshot captures not only moments of leisure but also hints at social issues such as alcoholism and class divides.
Mary Evans Prints Online has preserved this piece of history for us to reflect upon and appreciate. It serves as a reminder that while times may change, some aspects of human nature remain constant throughout history.
