EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to Kingston-on-Thames, capturing the essence of its vibrant Market Place. The image, an engraving by English School from the 19th century, showcases the bustling atmosphere and lively energy that once filled this historic location. Intriguingly, this illustration was originally featured in The Graphic on August 23rd, 1890. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the past and allows us to witness how marketplaces were hubs of activity during that era. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the horses that populate the scene. These majestic creatures were not only essential for transportation but also played a significant role in shaping daily life at Kingston-on-Thames' market. Their presence adds a touch of authenticity and nostalgia to this remarkable piece. Additionally, we cannot help but notice the fashion choices depicted here. From elegant dresses to dapper suits worn by both vendors and customers alike, it is evident that style was highly valued even amidst everyday activities like shopping at the market. Lastly, our eyes are drawn towards "The Druids Head" an establishment prominently displayed within this enchanting scene. This historical reference hints at Kingston-on-Thames' rich cultural heritage and invites us to imagine what stories might have unfolded within its walls. Overall, this evocative print captures a moment frozen in time—a snapshot of Kingston-on-Thames' Market Place brimming with life and character from over a century ago.
