EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 19th century London with this print of the Thames Embankment on a foggy evening. The scene is set as the lamplighter goes about his nightly routine, casting a warm glow over the historical streets of Britain's capital city.
The gas lamps flicker to life, illuminating the cobblestone streets and revealing snippets of social history from a bygone era. This snapshot captures a moment frozen in time - a glimpse into the daily life and routines of Londoners in 1897.
As you gaze at this image, you can almost hear the bustling sounds of horse-drawn carriages clattering down the street and catch whiffs of coal smoke mingling with damp river air. The atmosphere is thick with mystery and intrigue, inviting you to step into this enchanting world where gas lights cast long shadows against brick buildings.
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports you back to a simpler time when gas lamps were essential for navigating darkened streets after sunset. It serves as a reminder of how far we've come since then while also celebrating the rich history and heritage that still lingers in London's iconic landmarks like the Thames Embankment.
