EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the transformation of Regent Street, looking south from Maddox Street, over a span of 17 years. The image on the left showcases the bustling street in 1909, while the one on the right depicts its evolution in 1926. The photograph offers a glimpse into London's history and highlights the significant changes that occurred during this period. It is evident that Regent Street underwent a remarkable rebuilding process between these two snapshots. The architectural development is striking as old structures were replaced with new ones, reflecting the city's progress and modernization. The juxtaposition of these images allows us to appreciate how time can reshape urban landscapes. From horse-drawn carriages to motor vehicles, we witness not only advancements in transportation but also shifts in fashion and lifestyle. This print is part of a private collection and was originally used as an illustration for Harold Clunn's book "London Rebuilt 1897-1927". Its inclusion among other late 19th and early 20th century photographs provides valuable insight into London's rich history. As we gaze upon this piece, we are reminded of how cities continuously evolve, leaving behind traces of their past while embracing new possibilities for growth. This historic snapshot serves as a testament to London's enduring spirit and its ability to adapt to changing times.
