EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the bustling streets of Cirencester, Gloucestershire in 1906. The image captures a picturesque view along Dyer Street, one of the town's main thoroughfares, leading towards the vibrant Market Place. Standing proudly in the foreground is the pedimented doorcase of number 3 Dyer Street, an architectural gem that adds character to this charming scene. As our gaze extends further down the street, we catch sight of the magnificent Church of John the Baptist rising majestically in the distance. Its towering spire serves as a reminder of Cirencester's rich history and religious heritage. Henry Taunt skillfully captured this snapshot from a bygone era with his camera lens. His attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in Edwardian England - a time when horse-drawn carriages still traversed these cobbled streets and women donned elegant dresses while going about their daily lives. This print not only showcases Cirencester's architectural beauty but also offers us a glimpse into everyday life during this period. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times and invites us to appreciate both the grandeur and simplicity found within historic towns like Cirencester.
