EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Highbury around the year 1900. The focal point of the image is the Barn Tavern, a charming pub that stands proudly amidst its Victorian surroundings. Its architecture exudes an air of elegance and history, with intricate details adorning its façade. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from the past, our eyes are drawn to various elements that bring life to this scene. A drayman can be seen guiding his horse-drawn wagon through the busy road, transporting goods from one place to another. Bicycles lean against shopfronts while their owners go about their daily errands. The presence of horses adds a touch of rustic charm to this urban setting, reminding us of a time when these majestic creatures were an integral part of everyday life. Their presence also hints at the proximity of rural areas where farms and livestock thrived. Captured by an English photographer whose identity remains unknown but whose work has stood the test of time, this photograph offers a glimpse into Edwardian London's vibrant street trade culture. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and nature's beauty coexisting harmoniously within city limits. Preserved in private collection and now out-of-copyright, this remarkable piece allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also showcases photography as an art form capable of capturing fleeting moments for generations to come.
