Close No. 157 Bridgegate (#34), Printed 1900
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative photograph taken by renowned Scottish photographer Thomas Annan in the early 20th century. The image captures the exterior of a building located on Bridgegate in Glasgow, Scotland, a bustling cityscape teeming with history and character. The photograph is a testament to the rich architectural heritage of Glasgow, showcasing the intricate details of the building's facade, from the ornate stonework to the cobblestone pavement and the old-fashioned street lamps. The image is reminiscent of a bygone era, with the building's tall, narrow windows and the worn-down appearance of the brickwork, suggesting a long and storied past. The photograph was taken using the photogravure process, a popular method of producing high-quality prints during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The resulting image is crisp and detailed, with an impressive tonal range that brings out the subtle nuances of the scene. Despite the passage of time, the image remains a powerful reminder of the urban landscape of Glasgow during the 1900s. The cobblestone streets, the worn-down buildings, and the old-fashioned street lamps all contribute to a sense of nostalgia and wonder, inviting us to explore the history and culture of this fascinating city. The photograph is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), a testament to its enduring value as a work of art and a historical document. Thomas Annan's "Close No. 157 Bridgegate (#34), Printed 1900" is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of photography, urban landscapes, or the rich cultural heritage of Scotland.
