White Horse Close, Edinburgh - Victorian Period: A Glimpse into the Past Step back in time with this image of White Horse Close in Edinburgh during the Victorian period. The photograph, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare and intriguing glimpse into the early days of this historic Scottish city. The image showcases a narrow, cobblestone close, lined with whitewashed buildings and adorned with hanging laundry. At the heart of the scene, a horse and cart make their way along the close, their hooves clattering against the stones. The horse's coat is glistening with rainwater, adding to the overall sense of authenticity and nostalgia. The Victorian era, which spanned from 1837 to 1901, was a period of significant growth and change for Edinburgh. The city underwent extensive urban development, with new buildings, roads, and infrastructure being constructed. White Horse Close, with its traditional architecture and quaint atmosphere, represents an important piece of Edinburgh's rich history. The photograph's vintage aesthetic is further enhanced by the use of a lantern slide. Lantern slides were popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries for projecting images using an oil lamp or magic lantern. This method of viewing photographs added an element of mystery and excitement, making the image even more alluring. As you explore this photograph of White Horse Close, Edinburgh - Victorian Period, allow yourself to be transported back in time. Imagine the sounds, smells, and sensations of this bustling close during the era of horse-drawn carriages, gas lamps, and traditional Scottish life.
