EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Fleet Street: Looking West, 1899" takes us on a nostalgic journey back in time to the bustling streets of London over a century ago. Captured by the talented photographer Henry Edward Tidmarsh, this image is now preserved in the archives of the London Metropolitan Archives. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, our eyes are immediately drawn to the vibrant scene unfolding before us. Fleet Street, known for its rich history as a hub of journalism and legal activity, comes alive with an array of characters and activities. The street is teeming with traffic - horse-drawn carriages and early automobiles navigate their way through the busy thoroughfare. Amidst all the commotion, shoppers can be seen going about their daily routines while lawyers and barristers rush past on their way to nearby Inns of Court. The air is filled with energy as merchants sell their wares from market stalls lining the sidewalks. In one corner of this lively tableau stands a flower girl, her presence adding a touch of color amidst the monochromatic surroundings. Her bouquet serves as a reminder that even in such fast-paced urban environments, beauty can still be found if one knows where to look. Through Bridgeman Images' careful preservation efforts, we are fortunate enough to witness this moment frozen in time – an evocative glimpse into London's past that continues to captivate viewers today.
