EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Boulogne, the Entrance to the Harbour" transports us back to the 19th century. Taken by an English photographer whose identity remains unknown, this print is now part of a private collection. The image showcases the bustling port of Boulogne with its main entrance in focus. The harbour wall stands tall and sturdy, protecting the moorings where ships docked during that era. The historical significance of this photo lies in its inclusion as an illustration for The Album, A Journal of Photographs of Men, Women, and Events of the Day, Volume II in 1895. The monochromatic tones add a timeless quality to this snapshot from history. Every detail is accentuated through shades of black and white – from the intricate architecture lining the harbour walls to the boats dotting the water's surface. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are reminded of Boulogne's rich maritime heritage and its importance as a hub for trade and travel during that period. This photograph serves as a window into early 19th-century life – capturing not only a specific moment but also offering insight into how people lived and worked along these shores. With each glance at this remarkable print by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back centuries ago when Boulogne's harbour was alive with activity – forever preserved within these delicate black-and-white lines.
