EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling High Street in Kensington, London, around 1900. The image captures a vibrant scene of daily life during the turn of the century. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era where horse-drawn vehicles dominated the streets and people went about their business amidst a sea of activity. The grand buildings lining both sides of the street exude Victorian charm, with their intricate architecture and ornate shop fronts. Sun blinds adorn some windows, shielding pedestrians from the bright sunlight as they stroll along this iconic thoroughfare. The awnings provide a touch of elegance while also offering respite from occasional rain showers that London is known for. Amidst all this architectural splendor, we see crowds of people going about their day - shoppers browsing through various stores, businessmen rushing to their next appointment, and families enjoying a leisurely walk together. This photograph truly encapsulates the essence of city life at that time - busy yet full of character. As we admire this piece from Living London Vol. 1 edited by George R. Sims, it serves as a reminder not only of how much has changed over the past century but also how certain aspects endure throughout history. It allows us to appreciate our connection to those who came before us and marvel at how cities like Kensington have evolved into what they are today.
