EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Old Glasgow in 1897. The image captures Close 267, located on High Street, which was a significant hub during the industrial revolution. As Scotland's most densely populated city, Glasgow played a pivotal role in the country's growth as an important center of industry and commerce. The photograph by Thomas Annan showcases the rich history embedded within these narrow alleys known as "closes". These closes were not only pathways but also home to many residents who lived amidst the thriving city life. This particular close is a testament to both the resilience and challenges faced by its inhabitants. Glasgow's cultural heritage is further highlighted through its notable landmarks such as Hunterian Museum, Scotland's oldest public museum, and an impressive medieval church that stands proudly on the Scottish mainland. These architectural gems add depth to Glasgow's historical significance. T. R. Annan beautifully captures this moment frozen in time with his skilled photography techniques. The monochrome format enhances our appreciation for this slice of history while allowing us to focus on intricate details that might otherwise be overlooked. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Fine Art Storehouse, we are transported back to a bygone era where stories unfold at every corner of Old Glasgow Close (1897: Close 267).
