EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Middlesex Street, also known as Late Petticoat Lane, on a Sunday morning in 1891. The artist behind this mesmerizing piece is William Luker, who beautifully captures the essence of this bustling street market in the heart of London's East End. Petticoat Lane Market, renowned for its fashion and clothing offerings, consists of two adjacent street markets. While Wentworth Street Market operates six days a week, Middlesex Street Market only opens its doors on Sundays. This vibrant scene showcases a snapshot of life in late 19th century Britain. As we gaze upon the image from an elevated view, we are transported into a world filled with activity and energy. The streets are crowded with people going about their daily business – women browsing through stalls adorned with fashionable garments while men engage in trade and commerce. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the photograph, emphasizing the historical significance it holds. Tower Hamlets' rich history comes alive within these frames as we witness city life unfolding before our eyes. This remarkable print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable glimpse into London's past. It encapsulates not only the physicality of Middlesex Street but also evokes emotions tied to community spirit and cultural heritage that have endured throughout time.
