EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the industrial charm of Kings Cross in London during the late 19th or early 20th century. At the heart of the image is an open gas street light, its flickering flame casting an orange glow on the cobblestone road and the surrounding buildings. The street is bustling with activity, as a man in a hat and coat walks briskly past, while traffic flows steadily in both directions. Two high walls flank the road, their rough textures and intricate brickwork a testament to the area's rich history. In the distance, the iconic gasometers of Kings Cross can be seen, their tall, cylindrical silhouettes a distinctive feature of the London skyline. These structures, once used for storing and regulating the pressure of town gas, are now a beloved landmark and a reminder of the area's industrial past. The Imperial Gas Light and Coke Company, which operated in the area, played a crucial role in providing lighting to the streets of London during a time when electricity was not yet widely available. The open gas street light in the foreground is a testament to the company's innovation and the importance of gas lighting in the city's history. This photograph, taken by John Gay, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when industry and innovation were at the forefront of urban development. The open gas street light, with its warm, inviting glow, serves as a beacon of progress, illuminating the way forward in a world that was rapidly changing.
