EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the charm and character of High Street in Oakham, Rutland, dating back to 1916. The bustling street is lined with quaint shops and businesses, each telling a story of a bygone era. The architecture reflects the traditional English style of the early 20th century, with its distinctive facades and intricate details.
As you gaze at this snapshot from the past, you can almost hear the clip-clop of horse-drawn carriages and the chatter of locals going about their daily routines. The cobblestone streets add to the historic ambiance, transporting you back in time to a simpler way of life.
The postcard format adds an extra layer of nostalgia to this image, evoking memories of handwritten correspondence and snail mail communication. It serves as a reminder of how much has changed in our modern world while also celebrating the enduring beauty of places like Oakham.
Grenville Collins has captured not just a moment in time but a piece of history frozen in black and white. This print is more than just a picture – it's a window into another world that continues to fascinate and inspire us today.
