EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of London in 1894. In this snapshot, we witness a unique form of advertising as sandwichboard men roam the Strand, promoting theatre seats to passersby. The iconic Savoy Street stands on the right side of the frame, while in the background, the elegant church of St Mary-le-Strand adds a touch of grandeur to the scene. The image captures a moment frozen in time - a busy day filled with activity and movement. A large group of people can be seen walking along the street, going about their daily routines. The presence of a coach drawn by horses further emphasizes that this was an era before automobiles dominated city life. What makes this photograph particularly intriguing is its stereoscopic quality. Produced by London Stereoscopic Company, it offers viewers an immersive experience that brings history alive. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back more than a century ago and given a glimpse into everyday life during Victorian times. While it's fascinating to observe how advertising methods have evolved over time, let's appreciate this photo for its artistic value rather than focusing on any commercial use it may have had originally intended. This remarkable piece from Fine Art Storehouse allows us to marvel at both historical significance and aesthetic beauty captured within one frame.
