EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Petticoat Lane market in London on 7th April 1925. The image, captured by Hawkins from the Topical Press Agency, beautifully depicts a typical scene at this vibrant marketplace. In the foreground stands a dentifrice stall, adorned with an array of intriguing objects that catch the eye. The collection of items showcases the diversity and charm of street trade during that era. Punters can be seen eagerly examining these curiosities while engaging in animated conversations with traders. The monochromatic format adds a timeless quality to the photograph, allowing us to immerse ourselves fully in this historical moment. It transports us to a different era when London's markets were thriving hubs of activity and commerce. As we gaze upon this snapshot from almost a century ago, it serves as a reminder of how much has changed over time while also highlighting certain enduring aspects of human interaction and trade. This particular image offers glimpses into European street culture and captures the essence of daily life during that period. Hawkins' skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the individual elements within this scene but also its overall atmosphere - one filled with energy, curiosity, and perhaps even some nostalgia for those who have experienced or heard stories about Petticoat Lane market throughout history.
