Mansion House and Cheapside, London - A Hold-to-Light Postcard (circa 1901) This beautiful hold-to-light postcard captures the enchanting scene of Mansion House and Cheapside in London during the early 20th century. The Mansion House, a historic building and the official residence of the Lord Mayor of London, is illuminated by the soft glow of the moon and the warm light of the gas lamps lining the streets. The intricate details of the building's facade are accentuated by the reflection of the moonlight on the calm waters of the moat surrounding it. The bustling Cheapside, a major shopping street in the City of London, is bustling with activity. Horse-drawn carriages and buses filled with passengers make their way through the crowded streets, while pedestrians, dressed in fashionable attire, hurry along, carrying shopping bags and parcels. The windows of the shops along Cheapside are brightly lit, displaying an array of merchandise that would have enticed shoppers of the time. The hold-to-light feature of this postcard adds an extra dimension to the image, allowing the viewer to appreciate the intricacies of the scene in greater detail. The reflection of the lights and the buildings on the surface of the postcard creates a sense of depth and dimension, making it a truly captivating and timeless piece of London's history.
