1896 Alan Bookshop Coach Depicts Drawn Promoting Wright
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with Hatchards, London's oldest and most esteemed bookseller, as we present this enchanting image from 1896. The photograph, captured by the skilled artist Alan Wright, showcases an Edwardian lady in elegant attire, standing in front of a horse-drawn coach. The vintage scene transports us to an era of sophistication and refinement. Hatchards, established in 1797, has a rich history that spans over two centuries. This photograph is a testament to the bookshop's enduring charm and its connection to the literary world. The Edwardian lady, with her timeless beauty and grace, embodies the spirit of the literary elite who have graced Hatchards' doors throughout the years. The horse-drawn coach, a common mode of transportation during the late 19th century, adds to the nostalgic atmosphere of the image. The coach, adorned with intricate designs and ornate details, symbolizes the elegance and grandeur of the time. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a reminder of Hatchards' commitment to preserving the rich literary heritage of London. As you explore the vast collection of books at Hatchards, you'll find yourself immersed in a world of knowledge and history, much like the Edwardian lady in this image. Join us at Hatchards as we continue to celebrate the joy of reading and the magic of the written word. Let this photograph inspire you to discover new worlds, expand your horizons, and ignite your imagination.
