EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this hand-coloured photograph of Douglas, Isle of Man, taken during the Victorian period. The image transports us to an era long past, showcasing the quaint charm of this beautiful coastal town. The photograph features a tranquil scene of Douglas Promenade, with its elegant Victorian buildings and early horse-drawn trams. The horse-drawn tram, adorned with ornate decorations, is a testament to the advanced transportation technology of the time. The horse, harnessed and ready to pull the tram, adds a touch of rustic authenticity to the scene. The promenade is bustling with activity, with people dressed in Edwardian attire strolling along the pavement, enjoying the crisp sea air. Children play nearby, and vendors sell their wares from colourful carts. In the background, the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company's steamship can be seen anchored in the harbour, waiting to transport passengers to their destinations. The hand-coloured process adds a vibrant and rich quality to the photograph, bringing the image to life and making it a true work of art. The intricate details of the buildings, the textures of the clothing, and the natural colours of the landscape are all beautifully rendered, making this a must-have for any vintage or historical collection. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of Douglas during the Victorian period. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of the Isle of Man and a testament to the beauty and charm of this enchanting island.
