EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the lively spirit of a ragtime band performing in the heart of London's bustling Oxford Street in 1916. The band, identified as BL23648_A, is located within the grand Maison Lyons department store, a popular destination for shopping and leisure activities during this era. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of music and its power to bring people together, even amidst the hustle and bustle of urban life. The musicians, dressed in their Sunday best, are fully engrossed in their performance, their faces expressing a sense of joy and concentration. The band comprises a cornet, a trombone, a banjo, and a drum set, the instruments gleaming under the soft glow of the department store's lighting. The audience, a diverse group of people, are captivated by the music, some tapping their feet or clapping in time, while others simply smile and enjoy the moment. The photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of recreational activities and entertainment during the early 20th century. The setting of a department store adds an interesting layer to the scene, highlighting the role these establishments played as community hubs where people could gather, shop, and be entertained. This photograph by Bedford Lemere is a precious reminder of a time when music brought people together, creating memories and moments of joy that transcended the ordinary.
