Marble Arch, London Early 1900s: A Vintage Glimpse into the Past This photograph, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to early 1900s London. The image showcases the iconic Marble Arch, an intricately designed marble triumphal arch, standing proudly against a backdrop of a bustling cityscape. The Marble Arch, originally built in 1828 as the entrance to Buckingham Palace, was later moved to its current location at the western end of Oxford Street in 1851. The arch's intricate carvings and Corinthian columns are beautifully preserved, showcasing the grandeur and opulence of the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The photograph is further enhanced by the addition of various elements that define the early 1900s. A horse-drawn carriage and a vintage lantern slide projector are visible in the foreground, reminding us of the era's transportation and entertainment technologies. In the background, a motor bus makes its way along Oxford Street, symbolizing the gradual shift towards modern transportation. The photograph's muted colors and grainy texture add to its vintage appeal, making it an authentic and captivating representation of London during this time period. This photograph is not only a visual treat for history enthusiasts and architecture admirers but also a testament to the rich and diverse history of London.
