- Time travel back in beautiful Victorian England 130 years ago like you've never seen. The Victorian period in Britain was one of huge industrial and technological change, shocking divisions between rich and poor, sensational crimes, spectacular entertainments for the masses, and grand attempts to combat squalor and disease.

Thank you so much for all your hard work! My grandparents were kids during the years these photos were taken. I'd love to time travel and walk around for a few hours, provided I could get back to the present day with modern medicine, dentistry, and civil rights (I'm female.)
Your people didn't have "women's rights" for thousands of years and did great and better anyways.
wise comments. Unfortunatelly, these kinds of pictures, in general, inspire very conservative and idiot comments about peoples rights, like that of @FortniteBlaster2
@@1988brito "peoples rights" lol what a liberalistic worldview.
@@FortniteBlaster2 you are young to understand
@@franagustin3094 I'm too young but you cannot even use a grammatically correct sentence?
It’s great that somebody took these photos when they did , otherwise we would not know how people really looked back in the day…hooray for the Victorian photographers…..📸
Thanks for sharing this amazing video 😊
Thanks for your comment
Thank you giving new life to these historic photographs with your gift of editing with color.
Thank you so much for your comment!
Fantastic pictures, a far cry from the cultural enrichment we have been subjected to these days
Thank you so much!
I really enjoyed this. The colors really brought the photos to life!
0:45 I've stood there, at that exact same spot. With Fleet Street behind me and looking up towards St Paul's. That was in the '80s, although there were some details different, London still had the sniff of the victorians. Back then it looked a lot more like this architecturally than it does now in 2023!
I love the music used in this video.
Der Jugendstil ist meine liebstes Hobby. Ich liebe die Mode, Musik, Architektur, Literatur usw. Danke für die tollen Bilder.
Vielen Dank für Ihren Kommentar
Wonderful photos! And so well colored! Thank you for the effort.
Thank you so much for your comment!
The quality of these photos is amazing.
Thank you so much!
Look at all that diversity
What do you expect? It’s in England, therefore, everyone is English!
…why must I explain that to you??!
Thankyou for your hard work x these pictures are brilliant great to see everything in colourx
Thank you so much for your comment!
Very nice. Love the colors!
Thank you so much !
Great thank you!
I do wonder whether the wedding photograph at 2:22 was really taken in 1900. The fashions seem typical of the early 1920s.
The dates in this video are often way, way off & not to be taken seriously.
Never seen this before! Amazing! Thank you xxxx
These photos are wonderful thank you.😊
Thank you so much for your comment!
This was ABSOLUTELY LOVELY! Thank You!!😊
Thank you so much!
England looked so safe and civilised when England was, well... English!!!
Only a monster would do this to a people.
@@karlosthejackel69 someone would definitely have to be evil. The deliberate destruction of the western world. Cheers anyway.
STUNNING !! MANY THANKS ! FROM, U.K. )2023).
sometimes when I see these old photos its like I remember seeing certain things in them. That shop @ 4.22 gave me a strange deja vu when it came up. It actually startled me. My whole life since a child I have had that sensation about things I never saw before its as if I remembered them, how strange that is. Impossible. Although I am of English ancestry I have never left the USA.
@55points , its called television or a film youve seen with an English shop .
Thank you for this I was born and grew up in London it will always be in my heart lovely video
Thank you so much!
thank you for your work for humanity
Thanks for your comment, it is much appreciated
👍 tolle Bilder 📺 👍💯 aus einer vergangenen großen Epoche! 😁
Vielen lieben Dank!
Very interesting photos by very good quality 🎉
Photo with Russian King Nicolas II, where he stands near his relatives ( English Queen Victoria) is amazing. A lot of Russian people didn’t see this photo and even didn’t know that English Royal family had blood roots with Russian King.
Also many European people don’t know that Russian Queen Ekaterina II was German nationality!
Superb, A real treasure, from the world my parents were born into.
I’m so glad the comment section isn’t full of “It’s so weird that these people are dead now”
No it would be weird if they were all still alive, what would be weird but fascinating is if one their descendants is watching this not knowing they are related
Love it great job keep up the good work
Thank you so much!
I suspect the wedding photo at 2:22 is later than Victorian, given the styles of the dresses, and the legs and arms revealed. More likely 1920s or even early 30s.
Colours are over saturated, but enjoyable to see
Nostalgia 😢😢😢😢😢😢
My family went to Derby day in 1902 and Ascot day and every year in their fine clothes top hats etc etc.Being a very wealthy family in 1720 era.
Amazing set of pictures. A few observations :-
1) The photo with the caption "The Royal Infirmary and Piccadilly Circus" (5.26) would more accurately be described as "Piccadilly Gardens", lest anyone mistake Manchester for London.
2) The shop fronts are truly works of art, even things of beauty - especially when compared to present day shop windows.
3) There are 2 photos of electric cars from the 1890s. Seems a shame now, with the benefit of hindsight, that petrol vehicles would soon super-cede them.
That was the biggest missed opportunity of the era! Sadly, it was easier to build fuel stations at scale than electrical charging stations. Automatic ignitions for gas engines was the death blow for electric cars.
I agree it is the Piccadilly Gardens but i don't why the Royal Infirmary is mentioned as that was a good distance away.
You are offering a fine view into the past. We have been on some of these same streets in our time. I might 'miss' the fine horses in your postcard views.
Thank you for your comment!
Nice video and music. Thx👍😊 (btw: @ 2:21 That is a 1920's wedding picture)
Things looked so much better back then, even with all the hardships, etc.
Loved the pictures. They were colorized the whole time. Some sites show pictures black and white and then fade into color. There is not enough time to fully appreciate the colored photos. However, I really didn’t enjoy the jazz music at all. It not enhance the enjoyment of the pictures. In fact, it detracted. Near the end, you played a sweet tune that really complimented the spirit of the picture. It was much more enjoyable. You really got into the mood of the subject. Please consider this when adding music tracts to your videos.
Thank you,
Deborah
The wedding photo at 2:25 was taken in the 1920's.
The photo at 3:40 is not Liverpool, it's Foster Place, Dublin City, Ireland
The 'Omnibus in the Victorian era' is from the 1860's, by 1889 the 'stove pipe' top hat had long been out of fashion. Good work.
When the world was a much more civilised and better place.
Lol working class people were worked to death with little money. Lifespan was short, many people died of infections that can be cured today and women didn't have the vote. Take your rose tinted glasses off.
When the 🇬🇧 not the world
@@kx9651 ?
You mean when the European countries had empires and plundered those they ruled over, no votes or rights for most people, no health care system, poor sanitation, poor education etc?
Now that is a time I love to read about and watch. Especially since I was born in Coburg and raised nearby. I am very very glad I didn’t live in that time though.
Stunning images beautifully presented...and the option of work in progress comments...😅 loved the piano..who is playing?
Thank you for your hard work! @ ;5.25, perhaps this is Manchester/ There are other pics which would confirm this. The site of the Infirmary (On the left) was later to be the various incarnations of Piccadilly Gdns, of which the current construction.....although honest I am too polite to say!
The Waterford boat club is here in Ireland,not England.
Love these videos also this music what style is it.?
I just loved this video so much thank you… show us some civil war ones
the gnome threw me at first😂
Not anymore, but great content.❤
Brilliantly enhanced photographs, thanks. Not too sure about the first bit of background music though. Whilst true that Britain was the wealthiest nation on earth at the time, we should remember that poverty, particularly in London, was severe and rife.
This was incredible. The Victorian wedding photo 1900 was an 1920s photo though. You can see that with the hair styles, hat styles and shoes, well and that feet were visible…
Very nice photos! The photo showing Queen Victoria with other royalties does not show Tsar Nicolaus and Tsarina Alexandra Fjodorovna! Maybee some members of the Teck family!
Definitely the future King George V and his wife Queen Mary (seated with child)... she was Mary of Teck
Those photos of the londoners in the 1880s. They would have lived through the JTR atrocities. Crazy to think of it really. Not that long ago.
Surprised to see so few poc among such a diverse class of the population. Interesting times!
I'm sure work has been done on this, but if we look at the Census held in the first year of every decade, we find that there was no question about ethnicity till 1951. However, in 1951, the proportion of the population indentiying as "White" was 99.83%. So 50 years before that, it may not be all that surprising that there weren't many dark faces in the photos!

Thanks for the presentation. 05:53 looks earlier than1889 due to the very high hats. If I lived with the masses in Victorian England, I'd probably be eating eels and trotters, but just on special occassions.
Very nice collection of photos but I would like to pin out that the photo depicting a "Victorian wedding 1900" is in fact fashion of the early 1920's as the ladies wear shorter dresses as you can see their ankles something you would definitely not see in the 1900's.
Regarding photo of "Omnibus in the Victorian era. London 1889", I would say it is more around the 1860's. The top hats of the gentlemen are really tall. See photos of engineer Isambard Kingdom Brummel circa the same period. These sort of top hats were out of fashion in the 1880's, they were shorter around 1889. But I still enjoyed looking through all the photos. Nice work😀
Thank you for the photos. Some seem too coloured, even the sepia are better. The photos themselves are great. I have subscribed but please the over colours.
I mean you spoil your wonderful photos with the overdone faux colours Imo.😊
Pretty random colours. I can't imagine Churchill actually wore a Claret coloured Top hat, or that a Mock Tudor house would have sky blue timbers. But, they are more lively than the usual B/W.
Just a heads-up with something. In that photo of Queen Victoria, you shaded her dress with a red, but she ONLY wore black from the time her husband died until her death. This started around her early 40s.
The pub shown at 6:00 is still there and still called The Crown. It is at Seven Dials in Covent Garden. It has lost its dome along the way, however!
Back in the days when every nation had its distinguishing features, it feels like there's less identity nowadays. Sending love from Lebanon
Interessant👍 More Piktures from Workers?
More than the
36?
@@frederickgolding1913 36?
The Victorian wedding that you date 1900 looks more like 1920s
Music is boring and distracting…the fotos are awesome…thanks
How far they’ve fallen!
So are we all gonna ignore the leprechaun in the dang picture?
At 1:50 is that Sir Duff Cooper and Lady Cooper? Both survived the TITANIC sinking.
My front garden is in the Oxford Rd, Reading photo
Great photos! FYI the Victorian Era ended in January 1901 when the queen died. The Edwardian Era was from 1901 until the beginning of WWI. There’s a 1920’s wedding photo labeled as Victorian. You can tell it’s from the 1920’s because the adult bridesmaids are wearing knee length dresses. Until the end of WWI (1918-1919) only sex workers would’ve worn such short dresses. I know that you want to be as factual as possible, so please consider becoming acquainted with the clothing styles of the period(s) that you are representing. I love looking at colorized old photos because they bring the people and their surroundings to life and remind us of our common humanity.
Being factual, the Edwardian era would, using your point about the Victorian era, have ended in 1910, when he died.
The picture which says Leeds at 6.19 is actually Whitby on the East Coast of Yorkshire, a very well known photo by Frank Sutcliffe.
The photo at 7:56 is not Regent Street but more likely to be Liverpool Street Station.
3:16 even though I’m a red, this is great.
Sound track was not chosen very well. Jazz piano!
🤗🤗🤗❤❤❤👍👍👍
👍
nice but wrong music my friend!
When will hats be back in fashion?!
I wear one all the time, I have for years, get called peaky blinders, chimney sweep or Victorian newspaper boy 😂
When we knew who we were. When we was indigenous. When we had community.
The Victorian era finished in 1901. The images you have captioned as being Victorian are actually Edwardian.
Love all your videos and seeing how my country looked a long time ago but 1903 wasn't a Victorian era as was titled on one of the photos unless you were suggesting she came from the Victorian era then I shall withdraw my statement. The photo was taken in the Edwardian era 1901 - 1910 as were some others on here.
The guy above the f in life at 6:08 looks like he’s on his mobile phone ?
That’s how people think, someone will look at a normal photo of today in the future and will think someone is doing something with technology that’s just come out. That guy was probably scratching his ear
At 9:17 it is not Regent Street but more likely to be Oxford Street.
Not to complain but wouldn’t music appropriate for the time of the pics be better? I feel like I’m at a NYC steak house.
Lucky for them they don’t have to see London now and the shameful way it’s been allowed to grow in the last 30 years, by the people with privilege like the ones in this video!!!!
Lucky they don't have to see what became of the Colston statue....
In 10 years you’ll beg for 2023
The shot of “Regent street “ in 1890 is wrong. The Princess Theatre was in Oxford st and demolished in 1902.
Each photo could have done with 10 minutes in Photoshop to correct the rainbow effect caused by whatever colourizing program used
The time that there were two genders only and nobody was confused about their own gender.
It's a fad. It will pass 🙂
Beautiful, but don't think that is Nicholas and Alexandra on the left.
What gets me is the vibrant colors the late 19th century had. Looking at the black and whites of that time it wod seem 3verything was so dreary and miserable looking. Instead, you get a variety of different colors not only in the buildings but the carriages and clothes people wore
Could have been seriously improved by some contemporary music...come on chaps!!
My family have had servants in the victorian and edwardian era and far back to 1500.And we still do today in our big country estate.
They are not servants anymore and are professionals being paid appropriately with entitlements
When people wore layers and layers of clothing from hats gloves ties belts coats dresses socks boots underwear that you cannot remove on your own 😊
Lovely snaps of a bygone day when everything was ripe for the picking and it was impossible to make a wrong move. But remember, in history, every dog has its day. Ours was then and China and America is now. UK
Just one comment: this is so amazing! The only thing that is slightly off maybe is the Victorian wedding! I believe the women's skirts are much too short to be Victorian. I think that photo is from the 1930s, but what do you think?
I meant 1918-1930
@@annresnik6059 Definitely not Victorian.
Great photos but just a few mistakes
Long Live the British Empire. Pity is doesn't exist today. The SUN NEVER SET ON THE BRITISH EMPIRE.
Wow, the English were big on hats, huh.
2:12 is that human slave dressed decent
