EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Southampton in 1898. The focal point is the magnificent Bar Gate, a Grade I listed medieval gatehouse that stands proudly as part of the city's historic Norman town walls. Built in the 12th century using stone and flint, this architectural marvel showcases intricate details and an arrow slit for defense purposes. The image, extracted from "Our Own Country, Volume V" published by Cassell and Company Ltd. , offers a glimpse into the past with its timeless charm. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era where pedestrians strolled through the entrance while men and women went about their daily lives. The unknown creator of this print has skillfully captured not only the gatehouse but also provides a view of bustling background people going about their business. This scene evokes feelings of nostalgia as we witness history unfold before our eyes. With its historical significance and Victorian allure, Bar Gate remains an iconic tourist attraction in Southampton even today. This print serves as a reminder of how architecture can transcend time, allowing us to appreciate both its beauty and functionality throughout centuries gone by.
