EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white pencil print titled "Buildings, 1810-65" by Edward Pretty captures the essence of 19th-century architecture. The drawing showcases a row of buildings that span across the width of the image, each drawn at an angle. Starting from the left, we see a close-up view of a house, with subsequent houses gradually decreasing in size as they recede into the distance. In the center of this architectural scene stands a solitary tree, adding a touch of natural beauty to the urban landscape. The meticulous detailing and shading techniques employed by Pretty bring out every intricate feature of these structures. The print evokes nostalgia for an era when stable yards and old stables were commonplace. It offers us a glimpse into daily life during this period and allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such drawings and the historical significance they hold. Edward Pretty's work demonstrates his expertise as a draughtsman, illustrating not only buildings but also capturing elements like trees with botanical precision. This piece serves as both an artistic representation and documentation of architectural designs from that time. Whether you are interested in art history or simply admire fine craftsmanship, this print is sure to captivate your attention with its timeless beauty.
