EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Bermondsey in London during the mid-19th century. Captured by Sir Walter Besant and featured in his book "London - South of the Thames" this image offers a glimpse into a vibrant market scene that was once an integral part of daily life. In this snapshot, we see men engaged in lively negotiations amidst stacks of animal hides. The market is filled with activity as traders go about their work, showcasing their wares and striking deals. The architectural facade behind them adds to the historical charm, reminding us of a time long gone. The monochrome composition enhances the atmosphere, evoking a sense of nostalgia for this bygone era. It serves as a testament to both British history and trade practices prevalent during that period. As we peer into this window from another time, it's fascinating to imagine how these transactions unfolded and what stories lie within each face captured on film. This photograph not only preserves an important moment in history but also invites us to reflect on our connection with our past. Whether you're an art enthusiast or simply curious about London's rich heritage, this remarkable print transports you back to 19th-century Bermondsey – where commerce thrived and lives were shaped by trade at every corner.
