EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling traffic on the iconic Strand in London during the early 20th century. Taken in 1935, it showcases a scene that beautifully encapsulates the era's horse-drawn transportation. The image is part of "King Emperors Jubilee" a publication by F. G. H. Salusbury, which provides a glimpse into British history. The photograph reveals an unvanquished mode of transport as horses gracefully navigate through the city streets, pulling various carriages and carts. Amidst this lively atmosphere, towering buildings line both sides of the road, creating an impressive backdrop for this snapshot of daily life in London. Notably, St Mary le Strand Church stands proudly amidst the hustle and bustle—a symbol of religious heritage amidst modernity. This juxtaposition between tradition and progress reflects England's rich cultural tapestry. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this image while emphasizing its historical significance. It serves as a reminder of how far transportation has evolved since then—ushering us into an era where automobiles now dominate our roads. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Print Collector collection, we are transported back to a time when horses were integral to urban mobility and when London's vibrant energy was captured within every frame.
