EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this stunning 1890s lantern slide depicting the iconic St. Paul's Cathedral in London. This photograph captures the beauty and grandeur of the cathedral, which has stood as a symbol of faith and resilience in the heart of the city for over 300 years. The image showcases the intricate details of the cathedral's exterior, with its famous dome and tall, ornate spires reaching towards the sky. The use of soft focus and natural lighting adds to the romantic and dreamlike quality of the scene, transporting viewers to a bygone era. The St. Paul's Cathedral was a popular tourist destination even in the late 1800s, and this lantern slide would have been used by travel lecturers to showcase the wonders of a day trip to London. The Boswell Collection, from which this slide comes, is a testament to the enduring fascination with the history and culture of the British capital. As you gaze at this image, take a moment to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of London in the 1890s. The horse-drawn carriages, the bustling streets, and the aroma of freshly baked bread wafting from local bakeries. This lantern slide is not just a historical artifact, but a window into the past that invites us to explore the rich history and charm of London.
