Serles Place - A Glimpse into London's Vanished Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of 19th century London. Serles Place, formerly known as Shire Lane, stands proudly in this snapshot from around 1868, just before its demolition to make way for the iconic Royal Courts of Justice. Published in Walter Thornbury's renowned book "Old and New London" this image captures a moment frozen in history. The scene showcases a vibrant street filled with men and women going about their daily lives. Four figures stand prominently at the forefront, their attire reflecting the fashion trends of Victorian England. Amidst them is an alley leading towards T Bri London Strand, adding depth and intrigue to the composition. As we gaze upon this photograph, our imagination runs wild with stories that once unfolded on these very cobblestones. The air is thick with anticipation as horse-drawn carriages pass by and merchants peddle their wares. It is a fleeting glimpse into a world long gone but forever preserved within these frames. Thanks to Hulton Archive/Getty Images' meticulous preservation efforts, we are granted access to this remarkable piece of history. This print serves as both a visual delight for art enthusiasts and an invaluable historical artifact for those seeking insight into London's past.
