EDITORS COMMENTS
Trafalgar Square in the heart of London's Westminster district, as captured in this stunning photograph by Roger Fenton around 1850. The image offers a glimpse into the urban landscape of Victorian England, showcasing the iconic Trafalgar Square with its intricately designed fountains in the foreground. The water feature, adorned with four statues representing the four great seas that Britain had victoriously navigated during the Napoleonic Wars, creates a serene contrast to the bustling activity around it. In the background, the equestrian statue of King George IV stands proudly, a symbol of British monarchy and power. Morleys Hotel, now known as South Africa House, can be seen to the right, its grand architecture a testament to the opulence of the era. The church of St Martin-in-the-Fields, with its distinctive red brick facade, adds a sense of spirituality and history to the scene. The photograph also captures the essence of London's transportation during this period, with a line of horse-drawn cabs waiting patiently for fares. The cabs, a common sight on the streets of London, add to the vibrant energy and activity that characterizes this iconic square. This photograph, with its intricate details and captivating composition, offers a unique window into London's past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of the city during the Victorian era.
