EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the charming streets of Shrewsbury, Shropshire in 1933. Standing at The Square, we are transported to a bygone era as we gaze upon this bustling scene. Looking south-east, our eyes are drawn towards the magnificent Old Market Hall that proudly dominates the skyline. In the foreground, three vintage cars parked alongside each other add a touch of nostalgia to this snapshot of history. These classic automobiles remind us of an era when elegance and craftsmanship were valued above all else. They stand as silent witnesses to the vibrant life that once filled these streets. But it is not just the cars that catch our attention; standing tall amidst them is a statue honoring Lord Clive. This majestic figure seems almost alive against the backdrop of shops and buildings surrounding him. As if frozen in time, he reminds us of the rich heritage and historical significance embedded within every corner of this town. The market hall itself stands as a testament to Shrewsbury's enduring spirit throughout centuries past. Its architectural beauty captures our imagination and transports us back in time when markets were lively hubs for trade and social interaction. Preserved with care by Historic England Archive, this print allows us to glimpse into a world long gone but never forgotten - where statues stood proud, cars roamed freely, shops bustled with activity, and The Square was truly at the heart of it all.
