EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to late 19th century South Shields, specifically King Street. The image, captured by an English photographer from the 19th century, showcases the historical charm of this bustling street. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to a different era. The late Victorian atmosphere is palpable; it's as if we can almost hear the clatter of horse-drawn carriages and the chatter of locals going about their daily lives. The composition beautifully captures the architectural details of King Street, with its elegant buildings lining both sides. Each structure tells a story of its own, showcasing intricate facades that were undoubtedly admired by passersby during those days gone by. This photograph was originally featured in a booklet titled "Fine Art Photographic Views of Newcastle and area" around 1895. It serves as a testament to the artistry and skill involved in early photography. Now preserved within a private collection, this remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into history – reminding us how much our surroundings have changed over time while also highlighting the enduring beauty found within these old streetscapes. With every glance at this mesmerizing print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of South Shields' rich heritage and appreciate how photography has allowed us to capture moments that would otherwise be lost forever.
