EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Sheffield City Archives showcases the mesmerizing "West View of Sheffield" as captured by the talented William Ibbitt in 1855. The panoramic view offers a glimpse into the city's rich history and architectural marvels. In the foreground, we are greeted by the majestic New Dam, its tranquil waters reflecting the surrounding beauty. As our eyes wander towards the background, we catch sight of the Old Great Dam standing proudly against time's relentless passage. Nestled between these two dams lies an enchanting structure known as Dam House, exuding an air of mystery and intrigue. Its presence adds depth to this already picturesque scene, inviting us to ponder its significance in Sheffield's past. To the left of this idyllic setting, St. Phillips and Royal Infirmary emerge gracefully on the horizon. These iconic landmarks serve as reminders of both progress and compassion within a bustling cityscape. William Ibbitt's masterful composition not only captures breathtaking vistas but also transports us back to a bygone era when Sheffield was still emerging as an industrial powerhouse in Yorkshire. This remarkable photograph invites contemplation about how much has changed since then while preserving timeless elements that continue to shape Sheffield today.
