EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 20th century, capturing the iconic Blackfriars Bridge in London. The image showcases a bustling scene as we look north to south over the majestic River Thames. It is an extraordinary glimpse into a bygone era when horse and carts were still the primary mode of transportation, while electric trams were steadily gaining popularity. The year is 1911, and gas street lights illuminate the surroundings as pedestrians queue along the road. The picture highlights not only the architectural beauty of Blackfriars Bridge but also significant establishments that have stood the test of time. Prominent names like The News of The World, The Daily Mail, and J Sainsbury are visible in this snapshot, all having been established during London's late 1800s. Interestingly enough, it was The Daily Mirror who captured this momentous photograph. This publication had just launched its first edition two years prior in November 1903. As we delve into this remarkable piece of history frozen in time on March 1st, we can't help but marvel at how much has changed since then. From its humble beginnings with a bridge opening in 1769 to its current structure unveiled on November 6th, 1869 – Blackfriars Bridge stands tall as a witness to centuries of transformation within Central London's vicinity near St Paul Cathedral. This print truly encapsulates an era where tradition met progress amidst a vibrant cityscape along one of London's most beloved landmarks - forever etching itself into our collective memory lane.
