EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by the talented William O Field, takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Brewhouse Lane in Putney, Wandsworth, Greater London. The year is somewhere in the early 1910s during the Edwardian era. Standing proudly outside a charming house on this historic lane is a group of individuals whose identities remain unknown but their presence exudes warmth and unity. The urban setting provides an intriguing backdrop for this family portrait. The worn cobblestones beneath their feet tell tales of countless footsteps that have traversed these streets over the years. To the right stands the iconic railings of The Castle public house, adding a touch of local character to this snapshot from history. As we gaze upon this image frozen in time, it's impossible not to be captivated by the fashion choices and expressions on each face. Their attire reflects both elegance and modesty, showcasing typical Edwardian style with long skirts and tailored suits. William O Field's skillful composition transports us back to an era where community bonds were strong amidst rapidly changing times. This photograph serves as a reminder that even within an ever-evolving cityscape like London, families found solace and joy within their own homes.
