Close No. 29 Bridgegate 1897

"Close No. 29 Bridgegate" is a 1897 photograph by James Craig Annan, a prominent Scottish photographer known for his pictorialist style. The image captures a narrow, sun-drenched alleyway in Glasgow, Scotland, showcasing the artist's keen eye for composition and light. The play of light and shadow emphasizes the stark lines of the buildings, creating a sense of depth and mystery. Annan's use of detail in the cobblestones and the lone figure in the distance further enhance the realism and the everyday nature of the scene.
