EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of King William Street, Adelaide, South Australia, in the late 19th century. The wood engraving, published in 1897 by Charles Rudd from Melbourne, offers a historical view that allows us to witness the charm and grandeur of this iconic street during its early years. As we delve into this image frozen in time, we are transported to an era where horse-drawn carriages gracefully traverse the cobbled streets. The buildings lining both sides of King William Street stand tall and elegant with their intricate architectural details. Pedestrians dressed in fashionable attire stroll along the wide sidewalks while engaging in animated conversations or window shopping at various establishments. The atmosphere is vibrant and lively as people go about their daily activities amidst a backdrop of flourishing businesses.
