EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the bustling streets of London's Mayfair district. Carrington Street, with its rich history and architectural charm, is beautifully captured by an English photographer from the 20th century. The image showcases a corner of Carrington Street, where old buildings stand as silent witnesses to the city's past. The photograph was originally featured in E Beresford Chancellor's book "The West End of Yesterday and Today" published in 1926. It offers a glimpse into the early 20th-century London, highlighting both its historical significance and architectural grandeur. Notably, this particular street holds associations with famous figures such as Kitty Fisher, an actress who once graced these very pavements. The old Chesterfield Tavern stands proudly on one side while Chesterfield House looms magnificently on the other. These structures were not only landmarks but also gathering places for mountebanks and locals alike. As we admire this remarkable image, we are transported back in time to experience London's vibrant past firsthand. The photo serves as a testament to the enduring beauty of architecture and reminds us of how cities evolve over time while still retaining their unique character. This stunning piece is part of Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder – a treasure trove for history enthusiasts seeking visual representations that capture moments frozen in time.
