EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1875, showcases a breathtaking view of the South side of the River Thames as seen from Adelphi Terrace in London. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past as the hustle and bustle of the city seems a world away. The River Thames, a historic and iconic part of London's identity, stretches out before us, its serene waters reflecting the elegant architecture of the buildings lining its banks. Adelphi Terrace, a beautiful terrace located on the north bank of the Thames, is a popular spot for visitors and locals alike. In this photograph, we can see the terrace's grandeur on full display, with its ornate railings, manicured gardens, and stunning views of the river. The terrace's name is derived from the Latin word for brotherhood, reflecting the sense of community and connection that the area has long fostered. The South side of the River Thames, as depicted in this photograph, is a testament to the rich history and architectural diversity of London. From the imposing Tower Bridge in the distance to the elegant Victorian houses and warehouses that line the riverbank, the scene is a visual feast for the eyes. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the daily life of Londoners during this period, with people going about their business on the streets and boats making their way up and down the river. This photograph, taken over a century ago, remains a valuable record of London's past and a reminder of the enduring beauty and charm of the River Thames. It invites us to pause and appreciate the history and character of this remarkable city, and to cherish the memories and moments that make it so special.
