EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the front elevations of 4-10 Strand, Westminster LB in 1895. Taken by an English photographer from the 19th century, this print showcases a bustling street scene filled with horse-drawn buses and men donning elegant top hats. The image is part of the London Metropolitan Archives collection, owned by the City of London. The historic significance of this photo lies not only in its portrayal of architectural details but also in its depiction of daily life during that era. The busy street reflects the vibrant atmosphere of Westminster, a prominent area within the Metropolitan Borough and later incorporated into the London Borough. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear the clip-clop sound of hooves on cobblestones and imagine conversations carried on amidst a sea of bowler hats. It serves as a window into an age when transportation relied on horsepower rather than engines and when fashion was defined by elegance and formality. Now preserved for posterity, this image offers us a glimpse into our past while reminding us how much our cities have evolved over time. Through photography's lens, we are transported to another world where history comes alive before our eyes.
