EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a brochure for Alexandra Palace adorned with intriguing advertisements on its back. The English School's engraving beautifully captures the essence of Victorian London, offering a glimpse into the pleasures and entertainments that awaited visitors at this iconic venue. The image transports us to a time when sweet shops were abundant and confectionery was an indulgence not to be missed. Prominent among the advertisements are those for Fry's Chocolate, tempting passersby with their delectable treats. The mention of biscuits also hints at a delightful array of snacks available within these walls. But it is not just food that entices potential visitors; James Pain Fireworks promises dazzling displays that would light up the night sky above Alexandra Palace. This adds an element of excitement and spectacle to the scene, making it clear that this grand establishment offered more than just simple amusements. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from history, we cannot help but appreciate how these advertisements provide insight into daily life during this era. From vinegar merchants to candy stores, each advertisement tells its own story about commerce in Victorian London. Overall, this print serves as a fascinating window into both the pastimes enjoyed by society in 19th-century England and the vibrant advertising culture prevalent during that time.
