EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "People on a bench, Rotterdam, 1898" takes us back to the enchanting streets of 19th-century Holland. Captured by the talented artist James Batkin, this illustration is part of his remarkable book showcasing photographs from his travels in Holland and Belgium. In this particular scene, we find ourselves immersed in a bustling street corner where people gather on a wooden bench. The men don elegant uniforms and gloves while carrying swords at their sides, hinting at a time of war and conflict. Women can be seen wearing traditional Dutch dresses with headdresses adorning their heads. One lady cradles a baby in her arms as she engages in conversation with another woman nearby. The atmosphere is filled with Victorian charm as passersby stroll along the lane lined with quaint buildings. The monochrome effect adds an air of nostalgia to the image, transporting us back to an era long gone but forever captured through Batkin's lens. As we admire this print from James Batkin's collection, we are reminded of the rich history embedded within every frame. It serves as both a visual delight and an educational glimpse into life during the late 19th century in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
