EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the haunting atmosphere of a scaffold site on Tower Hill, within the iconic Tower of London. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases the historical significance and somber nature of this location. The image transports us back to a time when public executions were held at this very spot, evoking a sense of both fascination and dread. The stark contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the composition, emphasizing the solemnity that once permeated these grounds. Originally featured in Photographic View Album of The Tower of London published by Valentine & Sons around 1895, this gravure-printed image has been preserved as part of a private collection. Its inclusion in this album speaks to its importance as a visual record documenting one aspect of life within the walls of this historic fortress. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its historical significance. It serves as a poignant reminder that behind every structure lies stories waiting to be discovered – tales that shape our understanding and appreciation for landmarks such as Tower Hill and The Tower Of London itself.
