EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1900s, offers a glimpse into the bustling activity of Regent Street in Central London during the Edwardian era. The image, viewed from Oxford Circus looking north, showcases the vibrant scene of flower sellers plying their trade on the pavement. The terraced shops and stores, with their ornate facades and intricate wickerwork, line the road, creating a picturesque backdrop. The clock tower in the distance adds a sense of urgency to the scene, as the hands tick away, reminding passersby of the passing of time. The women, dressed in their finest Edwardian attire, haggle and sell baskets brimming with an array of fresh flowers. Their determined expressions and animated conversations convey the energy and dynamism of the bustling marketplace. The flower sellers, with their colorful displays, bring a touch of nature to the urban landscape, providing a momentary escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past and the rich history of Regent Street and its vibrant flower market.
