EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph titled "King William Street, Adelaide" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of 19th century Australia. The image, captured by an English photographer whose identity remains unknown, showcases the architectural beauty and charm of King William Street in Adelaide. The monochrome palette adds a timeless quality to this snapshot from history, allowing us to appreciate the intricate details of the buildings lining the street. From ornate facades to grand columns, each structure tells a story of its own. As we gaze at this print from a private collection, we are transported into an era where horse-drawn carriages traversed these very roads. The absence of modern vehicles allows us to imagine what life was like during this period – perhaps with men donning top hats and women wearing elegant Victorian gowns. This photograph originally served as an illustration for "Glimpses of Australia" a book published by Werner Company around 1895. It serves as both a historical document and a work of art that captures the essence and spirit of early Australian urban life. Through Bridgeman Images' careful preservation and dissemination, we have been granted access to this remarkable piece that encapsulates not only King William Street's significance but also celebrates photography's ability to freeze moments in time for future generations to admire.
