EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of High Street, Southampton in 1898. The creator remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this historical snapshot. As a city in Hampshire, Southampton experienced significant growth during the Victorian era, as depicted by the bustling scene portrayed here. Taken from "Our Own Country, Volume V" published by Cassell and Company Limited in London, Paris & Melbourne in 1898, this image showcases the architectural features and urban landscape that defined British cities at that time. The horse-drawn carriages dominate the street while pedestrians navigate their way through the busy thoroughfare. The photograph offers a glimpse into daily life during this period - men dressed in traditional attire can be seen going about their business on this vibrant avenue. The spire towering above adds a touch of grandeur to the overall view. With its detailed engraving capturing every aspect of this historic location, it serves as both a visual representation and literary reference for those interested in exploring England's past. This print is not only an artistic creation but also a valuable piece of history preserved for generations to come. As we admire this remarkable image captured over a century ago by an unknown artist, we are transported back to an era where horse-drawn vehicles ruled the roads and Southampton was undergoing rapid transformation amidst its rich cultural heritage.
