EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white aquatint print takes us back to the enchanting landscape of Hackney Marsh in 19th century London. The focal point is the majestic Beresford White House, also known as Beresfords Fishery or White House Fishery. Standing proudly against the backdrop of the riverbank, this historic building exudes a sense of charm and tranquility. The artist Edward Duncan skillfully captures the essence of this picturesque scene with meticulous detail. Figures can be seen dotted along the river bank, engrossed in their fishing endeavors. Their fishing rods elegantly poised as they patiently await their catch adds a touch of human activity to an otherwise serene setting. The monochrome palette enhances the timeless quality of this image while allowing us to appreciate every architectural nuance and geographical feature that surrounds it. The Guildhall Library and Art Gallery has preserved this remarkable piece which showcases not only Edward Duncan's artistic prowess but also William John Huggins' contribution to its creation. As we delve into history through this mesmerizing print, we are transported to a bygone era where trade thrived alongside nature's beauty. This artwork serves as a testament to London's rich heritage and invites us to explore its hidden gems nestled within its bustling streets.
