EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling Leicester High Street in 1904. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the magnificent Haymarket Memorial Clock Tower, proudly standing tall in the background. Its intricate design and grandeur serve as a reminder of Leicester's rich history. The clock tower seems to be undergoing some maintenance work, as scaffolding surrounds its majestic structure. This temporary addition only adds to the charm of the scene, showcasing a moment captured during a period of progress and growth for this vibrant city. As we shift our gaze towards the foreground, we are greeted by a large group of people going about their daily lives on this lively street. Shopfronts line both sides, displaying signs that hint at an array of businesses catering to various needs and desires. The atmosphere depicted in this photograph is one filled with energy and movement. People walk briskly along the street while others engage in conversations or pause momentarily to observe their surroundings. It offers us a glimpse into everyday life over a century ago, allowing us to appreciate how much has changed while also recognizing enduring elements that connect us across time. This remarkable piece from Hulton Archive serves as both an artistic tribute and historical documentation, preserving moments like these for generations to come.
