EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hawker from London Types" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Victorian-era London. Published by William Heinemann in 1898, this colour lithograph beautifully captures the essence of a working-class hawker going about his daily business. The image showcases a man wearing a distinctive bowler hat, which was a popular fashion choice during that era. He stands proudly next to his hansom cab, ready to sell his wares to passersby. The attention to detail is remarkable, as every aspect of the scene is meticulously depicted - from the intricate toy he holds in his hand to the vibrant colors that bring life and vibrancy into this snapshot of history. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time and can almost hear the sounds of horse-drawn carriages and bustling street vendors. It serves as a reminder of an era long gone but not forgotten – when hardworking individuals like this hawker played an essential role in shaping the fabric of society. This print is part of Central Saint Martins College's collection at University Arts London and has been preserved for generations to come thanks to Desmond Banks' efforts. It offers us a glimpse into the lives and struggles faced by those who belonged to London's working class during one of its most transformative periods.
