Exchange, Liverpool, 1875 - A Glimpse into the Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the bustling city of Liverpool in 1875. The image showcases the first Cotton Exchange Building at Exchange Flags, a structure that stood as a testament to Liverpool's thriving cotton trade during the 19th century. Built in 1808, this architectural marvel underwent transformations over time with upper storeys added. Sadly, it met its demise later on when it was demolished. However, this photograph allows us to appreciate its grandeur and historical significance. In the foreground stands an impressive monument dedicated to one of Britain's most revered naval heroes - Admiral Horatio Nelson. Sculpted by Richard Westmacott and designed by Matthew Cotes Wyatt, this neo-classical masterpiece was unveiled in 1813 and continues to command attention even today. The print captures not only these remarkable structures but also offers a glimpse into daily life during that era. It transports us outdoors where people would have traversed these streets amidst horse-drawn carriages and bustling activity. As we delve into this snapshot from history captured by an unknown creator, we are reminded of Liverpool's rich heritage as a hub for commerce and culture. This image serves as a visual portal connecting us with our past while igniting curiosity about those who once walked these very streets centuries ago.
