The Re-opening of Hungerford Market, Westminster, London, 1833 - A Spectacle in the Skies
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this black and white lithograph from the 19th century, we witness a momentous event that unfolded in the heart of Westminster. The scene captures the grand re-opening of Hungerford Market with an extraordinary twist - the ascent of Mr Graham in his hot air balloon. As crowds gather outside the market's magnificent building, their eyes are drawn upwards to witness this marvel of air transport. The towering structure serves as a backdrop for Mr Graham's daring adventure into the skies above London. With billowing clouds and flags fluttering in anticipation, it is a sight that evokes both awe and excitement. The artist Robert William Billings masterfully depicts every detail; from the intricate architecture surrounding Hungerford Market to the expressions on people's faces as they watch this groundbreaking feat unfold before their very eyes. It is a snapshot frozen in time that showcases not only technological progress but also highlights Britain's pioneering spirit during this era. This lithograph now resides within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, serving as a testament to our rich history and cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece today, we can't help but be transported back to that momentous day when Londoners witnessed one man defy gravity itself.
