1857 Costermonger Fully Laden Trades Vegetables
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1857 with this print of a London costermonger and his fully laden cartload of vegetables. The bustling street scene captures the essence of historical trade in the heart of London, as the costermonger proudly displays his fresh produce for sale.
Costermongers were an integral part of Victorian society, providing essential goods to city dwellers who relied on their daily deliveries for sustenance. This particular costermonger appears hard at work, his cart overflowing with vibrant fruits and vegetables that would have been a welcome sight to hungry customers passing by.
The image is a snapshot of a bygone era, when tradesmen like this costermonger played a crucial role in keeping London fed and thriving. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions that have shaped the city over centuries.
Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly preserved this piece of history through their collection of prints, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the sights and sounds of 19th century London. Take a closer look at this remarkable photograph and transport yourself back in time to experience the life of a London costermonger firsthand.
