EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour print of Greenock, Princes Pier takes us back in time to the early 20th century. Captured by an English photographer and now part of a private collection, this image offers a glimpse into the rich history of this bustling port town on the West Coast. The photograph is believed to have been taken as an illustration for Forty-Eight Coloured Views of Glasgow and the West Coast, a publication by William Thyne around 1905. The composition beautifully showcases Princes Pier, which was an integral part of Greenock's maritime heritage. As we delve into this historical view, we can imagine the comings and goings at Princes Pier during its heyday. This vital transportation hub served as a gateway for goods and passengers traveling through South Western Railway connections between Glasgow and Greenock. The attention to detail in this photograph is remarkable; every element seems meticulously captured by the skilled photographer. From the architectural features of Princes Pier itself to the surrounding landscape that stretches out towards Glasgow, it's clear that photography was already an art form even in those early years. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we are fortunate enough to witness this snapshot from history today. As we admire this stunning print, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic qualities but also its ability to transport us back in time – reminding us of our shared past and how far we've come since then.
