The Strand looking East, St Martin in the Fields
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the essence of old Victorian London with its bustling streets and iconic landmarks. This 19th-century print, now part of a private collection, takes us back to a time when horse-drawn buses were the primary mode of public transport. In this scene, we see a busy bus line traversing The Strand, filled with passengers eagerly making their way through the city. The grandeur of St Martin in the Fields looms majestically in the background, adding a sense of architectural beauty to an otherwise chaotic urban landscape. The image evokes nostalgia for a bygone era when transportation was slower-paced but no less vibrant. It reminds us that even then, London was a thriving metropolis where people from all walks of life converged on its streets. This historic photograph is not just about transportation; it tells a story about human connection and movement within an ever-evolving cityscape. It invites us to imagine ourselves as partakers in this lively scene – perhaps catching glimpses of conversations between strangers or witnessing fleeting moments that would become cherished memories. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this snapshot from history so that we can appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. As we gaze upon "The Strand looking East" let us be transported back in time and marvel at how much has changed while also recognizing the enduring spirit that continues to define London today.
