EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of the Flower Girls of London's Angel, Islington, in the early 1900s. The scene unfolds on a bustling North London street, where the vibrant colors and fragrant blooms of the flowers for sale contrast sharply with the drab, grey buildings and clothing of the time. The Flower Girls, dressed in traditional aprons and bonnets, are seen arranging their wares on the pavement, engaging with customers and bartering deals. Their lively banter and friendly demeanor draw in passersby, creating a sense of community and connection. The Flower Trade in London had a long and rich history by this time, with the first recorded flower market dating back to the 17th century. The Angel area, in particular, was known for its thriving flower market, which attracted sellers from all over the city. The Flower Girls played a crucial role in this trade, selling flowers directly to the public and providing a vital link between the growers and consumers. Despite the hardships and challenges of life in the city, the Flower Girls managed to bring a touch of beauty and joy to the streets of London. Their trade not only provided a livelihood but also brought a sense of color and vitality to the urban landscape. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of a bygone era, when the simple act of selling flowers could bring people together and brighten even the greyest of days.
