EDITORS COMMENTS
Old Houses At Corner Of George Street & High Street (#40), Printed 1900" is a captivating photograph taken by renowned Scottish photographer Thomas Annan. This image, a testament to the past, transports us back in time to the early 1900s in Glasgow, Scotland. The photograph showcases a corner where George Street and High Street intersect, with a row of old, run-down houses lining the sidewalk. The buildings, in various stages of disrepair, exhibit peeling paint, hanging laundry, and worn-out steps. The urban landscape is further enlivened by the presence of people going about their daily routines. Three women, one with a child in tow, are seen on the steps of one house, while a girl plays nearby. A woman in a white blouse and skirt hangs laundry out to dry on a line, while another woman, dressed in black, carries a basket on her head. The photograph, with its social commentary on the living conditions of the working class during this era, is a poignant reminder of Glasgow's history. This photogravure, a printing process popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), providing a glimpse into the past for future generations to appreciate. The image, with its rich history and intriguing details, invites us to reflect on the passage of time and the stories that these old houses hold.
