EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the bustling heart of Manchester's Smithfield Market in the late 1890s, as captured in this evocative photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library. The market, occupying an area of less than 12,000 square yards, was a hub of activity and trade, where farmers and merchants came together to buy and sell the freshest produce. The interior of the market is bathed in soft, natural light filtering through the glass roof, casting a warm glow on the piles of baskets and boxes brimming with an array of vegetables and fruit. The vibrant colors and textures of the produce stand out against the rough-hewn wooden crates and the worn brick walls, creating a sensory feast for the eyes. The marketgoers move efficiently among the stalls, their faces etched with the concentration and determination that comes with making a living through trade. The atmosphere is lively and energetic, yet there is a sense of order and routine that keeps the market running smoothly. The market's interior was a testament to the ingenuity of its design, with the glass roof allowing for ample light and ventilation, making it an ideal space for perishable goods. The use of baskets and boxes, rather than modern crates or pallets, speaks to the market's rich history and tradition. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when markets like Smithfield were the heart of their communities, bringing people together to buy and sell fresh produce and forge connections that would last a lifetime.
