EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, now available as a vintage print from Mary Evans Prints Online. This photograph transports us to the heart of Shrewsbury during the Victorian period, a time of great social and cultural change in England. The image features a group of boys, dressed in typical Edwardian attire, huddled around a lantern slide projector. The boys, with their rosy cheeks and bright eyes, exude a sense of curiosity and excitement as they gather to witness the magic of the projected image. The early days of childhood in this era were marked by a strong emphasis on education and exploration, and this scene beautifully encapsulates the spirit of discovery that defined the lives of many young boys during this time. Shrewsbury, a historic market town in Shropshire, was a bustling hub of activity during the Victorian period. The town's picturesque streets, grand architecture, and rich cultural heritage attracted visitors from far and wide. The boys in this photograph, with their well-dressed appearance and access to such modern technology, suggest that they come from affluent families who were able to provide their children with the best education and opportunities available. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the lives of children during the Victorian era. It is a reminder of the simple joys and wonders that childhood once held, and the enduring power of curiosity and imagination to bring people together.
