EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of London in the 1920s. In this image, we see an ice man with his cart navigating through the bustling streets of the city. The concept of refrigeration was still relatively new at that time, making this scene a fascinating glimpse into the past. The ice man's cart stands as a symbol of relief from the scorching heat that plagued London during those summer months. As he makes his way through crowded lanes and avenues, it is evident that people eagerly await his arrival to provide them with some much-needed cooling respite. The monochrome tones add a timeless quality to this snapshot of history. It transports us back to an era when road transport was dominated by carts like these, serving as a reminder of how far transportation has come since then. Arthur St John Adcock's Wonderful London series beautifully captured various aspects of life in England's capital city during this period. This particular photograph showcases not only the practicality but also the charm and character found within its streets. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity in finding ways to adapt and thrive in different environments throughout time.
