EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving by John Gilbert takes us back in time to a snowy Christmas Eve in London. The scene captures the iconic Christs Hospital, standing tall amidst the wintry landscape. As snowflakes gently fall from the sky, they blanket the streets and rooftops, creating a serene and magical atmosphere. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every building and street corner is meticulously depicted, transporting us straight into this bustling Victorian cityscape. People can be seen scurrying through the snow-covered streets, bundled up in warm coats and scarves as they make their way home or gather for festive celebrations. The glow of gas lamps illuminates the scene with a soft golden light, casting long shadows on the ground. It adds an extra touch of warmth to this chilly winter evening. The architecture of Christs Hospital stands out majestically against its surroundings – its grandeur contrasting beautifully with the simplicity of everyday life happening around it. As we gaze at this print, we are reminded of how Christmas has always been a special time that brings people together despite any hardships or cold weather. This timeless image evokes feelings of nostalgia and wonderment as we imagine ourselves strolling through these historic streets on that memorable Christmas Eve so many years ago.
