EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London in the early 1900s. The scene captures a chaotic traffic jam surrounding the iconic Mappin & Webb building, located on Poultry street. Horse-drawn cabs fill the frame, their weary horses patiently waiting amidst the chaos. People from all walks of life can be seen going about their daily routines, showcasing a snapshot of fashion and style from that era. The image encapsulates the essence of a rapidly growing city with its busy streets and crowded sidewalks. It serves as a reminder of how much has changed over the course of a century – from horse-drawn carriages to modern automobiles dominating our roads today. The composition is beautifully captured by Archive, who skillfully freezes this moment in time for us to reflect upon. As we gaze at this photograph, we cannot help but imagine ourselves immersed in this vibrant scene; hearing the sounds of hooves clattering against cobblestones and feeling an air thick with excitement and anticipation. London's rich history comes alive through images like these, allowing us to appreciate both its past and present beauty. This particular print offers viewers an opportunity to travel back in time and witness firsthand what life was like during London's twentieth-century heyday - an experience that is truly priceless.
