The Early Morning Market, Port Elizabeth
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph that takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century South Africa. Captured by an English photographer, this print showcases the vibrant atmosphere of a traditional market day in Port Elizabeth. In this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to the heart of the action. The Feather Market building stands tall in the background, its grand architecture contrasting with the humble ox-drawn wagons and merchants' stalls that fill the foreground. Despite being captured early in the morning, there is already a hive of activity as locals gather to buy and sell their goods. The photograph offers a glimpse into daily life during this era - from farmers conveying their produce to townsfolk browsing through cereals and other essential items. It's fascinating how even without color photography, one can sense the liveliness and diversity within this market scene. This image also serves as a reminder of how vital markets were for communication and trade in those times. Notwithstanding its size or location, every town had its own principal market where people gathered to exchange goods and connect with others. As we admire "The Early Morning Market" let us appreciate not only its historical significance but also acknowledge how markets have always been central places where communities come together – regardless of time or place.
