EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a captivating view of Adderley Street from the opposite side of the Custom House in Cape Town, South Africa. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this image is part of a private collection and was featured in the book "Picturesque South Africa" by Dennis Edwards around 1895. The scene depicted is bustling with activity, as it showcases a busy night on Dock Road. The street is illuminated by electric lamps, creating an attractive display of light and shadow. Trams pass through the arc-shaped street lines while pedestrians stand at various corners, giving life to this animated cityscape. Over the years, Adderley Street has undergone significant changes but remains a chief thoroughfare in Cape Town. The buildings lining both sides are strikingly handsome and have stood witness to countless moments that have shaped South African history. As you observe this photograph closely, notice how every detail has been captured with precision - from the shops stationed at each corner to the old-fashioned cab waiting near the railway station. This view offers a wonderful glimpse into what Adderley Street looked like during its heyday. Despite its unworthy appearance compared to modern times, this historic photo reminds us of how much progress has been made since then. It serves as a testament to Cape Town's growth and development over time.
