EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by John Thomson, we are transported back to the 5th of November in 1876 during a lively Bonfire Night celebration. The image depicts a grand procession through the streets of England, showcasing an extraordinary sight that is sure to ignite curiosity. At the center of attention stands a towering effigy known as "Guy Fawkes" mounted on a donkey-drawn cart. This larger-than-life figure symbolizes Guy Fawkes himself, who famously attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament in 1605. As it parades through the bustling streets, surrounded by enthusiastic spectators, one cannot help but be captivated by its presence. The scene exudes an air of excitement and anticipation as people line up along the route to witness this unique spectacle. Men and women alike can be seen eagerly gazing at the passing procession, their faces filled with awe and wonderment. It is evident that this tradition holds great significance for all those involved. Thomson's masterful composition allows us to appreciate not only the elaborate effigy but also other elements contributing to this vivid tableau: from intricately designed carts adorned with decorative motifs reminiscent of European customs and ceremonies; to animals like donkeys pulling these impressive structures forward. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with historical events and cultural traditions. It invites us into a world where bonfires blaze bright against darkened skies while communities come together in commemoration - reminding us that even centuries-old
