EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic Feather Market in Cape Town during the 19th century. The image, taken by an English photographer, showcases the grandeur of this iconic market that was a hub of activity at the time. The Feather Market is depicted as a large building with multiple floors and intricate architectural details. It was constructed on Dock Road, providing direct access to storage facilities for goods being transported by sea. The market's purpose was to facilitate the sale of feathers, wools, skins, and other produce from South Africa. The interior of the market is shown divided into various sections and offices where merchants would conduct their business. The building boasted modern conveniences such as lifts and sanitary facilities, making it one of Cape Town's most advanced structures at that time. In addition to its practicality, the Feather Market also held aesthetic appeal with its beautifully designed chambers and well-lit spaces. Its vast area allowed for easy navigation between different lots up for auction. This print offers us a glimpse into Cape Town's bustling commercial scene during this era while highlighting both its economic significance and architectural prowess.
