EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the bustling atmosphere of High Street, Belfast during the 17th century, as depicted in this engraving. The image, believed to have been created around the early 1900s, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of this vibrant city in Northern Ireland's County Antrim. The engraving showcases a lively scene filled with intricately designed buildings, their facades adorned with intriguing architectural details that speak of a rich and complex past. The structures, with their steep pitched roofs and tall chimneys, are a testament to the craftsmanship and ingenuity of the era. The cobblestone street is lined with horse-drawn carriages and merchants' stalls, adding to the sense of activity and commerce. People in period attire can be seen going about their daily business, engaging in animated conversations, or simply watching the world go by. Horses, both tethered and in harness, add to the scene's authenticity and charm. The image, although a copy from Mary Evans Prints Online, serves as a valuable reminder of the history and character that once defined High Street, Belfast during the 17th century. It invites us to explore the stories and traditions of this remarkable city, which continues to captivate visitors with its unique blend of history, culture, and modernity.
