EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intriguing sight of the mouth of the Holebourne under Blackfriars Bridge in London. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. The photograph showcases a historic view of the underground river Fleet, which flows beneath the bustling city of London. The Holebourne, also known as Holbourne or Holeburne, was a significant waterway in England's capital during this time period. Its presence added to the charm and mystery of London's subterranean world. This image provides a glimpse into the hidden beauty that lies beneath one of London's iconic bridges. The photo itself is gravure-printed and was used as an illustration for "Wonderful London" by St John Adcock around 1930. It offers viewers a unique perspective on this lesser-known aspect of British history. With its monochromatic tones and detailed composition, this photograph transports us back to the 1920s or 1930s when it was taken. It serves as a reminder that even within busy cities like London, there are hidden treasures waiting to be discovered. This fascinating piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the artistry behind photography but also invites us to explore our own curiosity about historical landmarks and their untold stories.
