EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Widemarsh Turnpike, a bustling street in Hereford, England, around the year 1860. The image showcases a male group of townspeople going about their daily activities against the backdrop of charming houses and an imposing gate. The scene exudes an air of simplicity and tranquility that is characteristic of European street scenes from this era. The composition captures the essence of life in Widemarsh Turnpike with remarkable precision. From the man carrying a basket on his arm to another figure engrossed in reading a newspaper, every detail tells a story about the people who once inhabited this historic place. The format chosen for this landscape shot perfectly encapsulates the wide streets and open spaces that were typical during those times. Widemarsh Turnpike itself was abolished just ten years after this photograph was taken, making it even more valuable as a historical document today. Thanks to Fine Art Storehouse's collaboration with Hulton Archive/Getty Images, we are able to appreciate this rare glimpse into Hereford's past. Whether you're an art enthusiast or simply intrigued by history, this print will transport you back in time to witness life as it once was on Widemarsh Turnpike. Display it proudly in your home or office space as a reminder of our rich heritage and how far we have come since then.
