EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling scene of Putney High Street in early 20th century London. The focus of the image is on the premises of renowned photographer William Field, located at number 9. The exterior view showcases a charming storefront adorned with elegant signage, proudly displaying Field's name. The surrounding area is teeming with activity, reflecting the vibrant urban life of this Edwardian era. A variety of businesses can be seen neighboring Field's shop, including Frederick Starr's umbrella and trunk making establishment and Lambert's fancy and leather goods store. These shops add to the lively atmosphere of the street, offering an array of products to passersby. Intriguingly, a milk cart can be spotted parked just outside Field's shopfront. This detail adds a touch of nostalgia to the photograph, reminding us that even in bustling city streets like Putney High Street, traditional modes of transportation were still prevalent during this time period. William O Field has skillfully captured this snapshot in time through his lens, freezing a moment that would otherwise have been lost to history. Through his artistry, we are transported back to early 20th century London - where business thrived amidst an ever-changing urban landscape.
