Bishopsgate, London in 1871 - A Glimpse into the Bustling City Life of the 19th Century
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by artist Walter Riddle takes us back to the vibrant streets of Bishopsgate, London in 1871. The image showcases a bustling scene filled with horse-drawn carriages and people going about their daily activities. In the foreground, we see the premises of Moore & Moore, renowned piano manufacturers of that era. Their grand building stands proudly amidst the hustle and bustle, a testament to their contribution to London's thriving trade and manufacturing industry. The colorized version adds an extra layer of charm to this snapshot from history. The warm hues bring life to every corner of this street scene - from the vibrant facades lining both sides of Bishopsgate Lane to the vividly painted carriages traversing its cobbled road. As we gaze at this picture, we are transported back in time; our senses can almost feel the energy emanating from this lively cityscape. It is a reminder that even over a century ago, London was already a hub for commerce and transportation. Preserved within these frames lies not just an artistic representation but also a glimpse into everyday life during one particular moment in history. This photograph serves as a window through which we can observe how people lived, worked, and moved around in Bishopsgate during those times. Thanks to Heritage Images' collection at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, such remarkable pieces continue
