EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "A side-line display" takes us back in time to the early 20th century. Captured by an English photographer whose identity remains unknown, this image is now part of a private collection. The photograph showcases a window display from the era, providing a glimpse into the world of retail drapery and textiles. It was originally used as an illustration for "The Practical Retail Draper" a comprehensive guidebook written by Fred W Burgess around 1912. Intriguingly, this snapshot offers more than just a visual representation of clothes and fabrics; it transports us to another era altogether. The historical significance of this image lies in its ability to capture the essence of early 20th-century fashion trends and retail practices. As we observe this mesmerizing scene, we can almost imagine ourselves strolling past shops on bustling streets filled with eager shoppers. This photograph serves as a reminder that even though times have changed drastically since then, our fascination with clothing and style has remained constant throughout history. With its impeccable composition and timeless appeal, this print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the artistry behind capturing such moments but also the rich tapestry of our collective past.
