EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "London in 1888: From Charing Cross through Whitehall to Westminster" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Victorian London. The engraving, created by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century, offers a unique glimpse into the city's rich history. The image showcases a bird's-eye view of the principal streets, beautifully illustrated by Herbert Fry for his book "London in 1888". As we traverse from Charing Cross through Whitehall to Westminster, we are transported to a different era where horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians fill the cobblestone streets. The intricate details captured in this engraving allow us to appreciate not only the architectural beauty of London but also its vibrant street life. The network of avenues and winding roads creates a mesmerizing maze that invites exploration and discovery. As we study this black and white depiction, it becomes evident that London was already a thriving metropolis even during this period. The grandeur of iconic landmarks such as Big Ben and Westminster Abbey stands tall amidst rows of buildings that house countless stories within their walls. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it serves as a historical document preserving the essence of London's past. It reminds us how cities evolve over time while retaining their unique charm and character.
