EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the charming era of the late 19th century. Titled "The Common, Southsea, c1896" it showcases an exquisite piece of artistry by Poulton & Co. The image is sourced from the renowned book "Pictorial England and Wales" published by Cassell and Company Ltd in London, Paris, and Melbourne. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to a fashionable destination known as Southsea. The Common unfolds before our eyes with its picturesque landscape adorned by a meandering avenue lined with trees. Men and women leisurely stroll along this historic lane on a sunny day, embracing the beauty of nature while relishing their weekend escape. Intriguingly dressed ladies carry parasols to shield themselves from the sun's rays as they engage in animated conversations with their male companions. A wooden fence separates them from the distant view of Portsmouth's seaside resort town bustling with activity. This monochrome masterpiece captures not only a moment but also conveys a sense of nostalgia for Victorian-era promenades where rambling through public spaces was considered an essential pastime. It serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of British culture during that time. "The Common, Southsea" is more than just a photograph; it encapsulates the essence of 19th-century England - its literature, landscapes, fashion trends - all woven together to create an enchanting visual experience that continues to captivate viewers
