Street Scene
circa 1895: Looking down Union Street in Aberdeen. Aberdeen, situated on the North Sea, is known as the Granite City because granite is one of its main exports and many of the buildings in the area are built from the hard wearing grey rock. The area is now a major service centre for the North Sea oil industry. (Photo by London Stereoscopic Company/Getty Images)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Street Scene (circa 1895: Looking down Union Street in Aberdeen)" takes us on a journey back in time to the bustling city of Aberdeen, Scotland. As we gaze upon this archival image captured by the renowned London Stereoscopic Company, we are transported to an era when horse-drawn carriages roamed the cobbled streets. Union Street, stretching out before us, is lined with magnificent buildings constructed from the durable granite that earned Aberdeen its nickname as the Granite City. This hard-wearing grey rock was not only a significant export but also shaped the architectural landscape of this vibrant Scottish metropolis. Intriguingly, this historic area has since transformed into a major service center for the North Sea oil industry. The juxtaposition between past and present becomes apparent as we contemplate how time has evolved this picturesque scene. The image captures a moment frozen in time - a snapshot of daily life over a century ago. A crowd fills the street; their faces lost to history but their presence immortalized within these monochromatic tones. It's fascinating to observe how people navigated through their urban surroundings without modern conveniences such as cars or buses. As we delve into this remarkable piece of artistry from Fine Art Storehouse, our imagination runs wild with stories untold and lives lived long ago on these very streets.
