EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Back Wynd Trongate" by Thomas Annan takes us back in time to the streets of Glasgow, Scotland in the late 19th century. The image showcases a narrow alleyway known as Back Wynd, located off Trongate, one of Glasgow's oldest streets. Thomas Annan, a Scottish photographer born in 1829, captured this scene with great precision and artistry. The photogravure technique used for this print adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its historical charm. The photograph was taken in 1899 using a negative plate and later printed in 1900. Measuring at approximately 22.1 x 17.1 cm (8 11/16 x 6 3/4 inches), it offers an intimate glimpse into the everyday life of that era. As we examine this snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported to a bustling cityscape filled with cobblestone streets and Victorian-era architecture. The composition draws our attention towards the winding path leading deeper into Back Wynd while capturing glimpses of people going about their daily routines. Through this remarkable piece of art, Thomas Annan allows us to reflect on how much has changed since those times while also appreciating the enduring spirit of Glasgow's historic neighborhoods. This print is not just an archival document but also an evocative window into another time - inviting us to explore history through visual storytelling without commercial intentions or use.
