EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of Duke Street, formerly known as Duck Lane, in West Smithfield back in 1807. The Tudor timber houses made of oak, chestnut, and plaster stand tall and proud, showcasing the architectural style of the time.
In the foreground, a man can be seen on a ladder lighting a gas lantern, adding a warm glow to the scene. To the right stands Anne Siggs, a malignant beggar woman with crutches, adding an element of human presence to the otherwise serene street.
The copperplate engraving drawn and etched by John Thomas Smith in 1813 beautifully depicts this historical moment in London's history. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this image - from the intricate timber houses to the bustling activity on the street.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from over two centuries ago, we are transported back in time to witness life as it once was in this vibrant city. The blend of architecture and humanity creates a rich tapestry that tells a story of days gone by.
This print serves as both a window into history and a reminder of the enduring beauty found within London's streets. It is truly a treasure worth cherishing for generations to come.
