EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Ashford Market, a bustling market day in the charming town of Ashford, Kent, in 1830. The image is an engraving by Garner after a drawing by George Shepherd, showcasing their incredible talent for capturing the essence of this vibrant scene. In this lively snapshot of history, we see people from all walks of life coming together at the market square. Men and women are engaged in animated conversations while tending to their stalls or browsing through various goods on display. Children playfully run around with dogs happily wagging their tails beside them. The presence of horsedrawn carriages adds an air of elegance to the scene as they transport both people and produce across the market grounds. Cattle and sheep can be seen being herded along by farmers, creating a sense of movement amidst the crowd. The attention to detail is remarkable; every figure seems to have its own story within this busy marketplace. It's as if time has stood still for just a moment, allowing us a glimpse into everyday life during that era. This evocative print captures not only the spirit but also showcases England's rich cultural heritage. A true masterpiece preserved by Hulton Archive that allows us to appreciate our past and reflect upon how far we've come since those days in Ashford, Kent.
