EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Behind the clock-dial, Big Ben and the Clock Tower, Westminster Palace" takes us back in time to London's iconic landmark. Renouard's meticulous attention to detail brings this historic scene to life. The image transports us behind the scenes of Big Ben, revealing a glimpse into the inner workings of this magnificent clock tower. A lone workman can be seen diligently tending to the intricate mechanisms that keep time for all of London. The sheer scale of the architecture is awe-inspiring; it towers above him as a testament to human ingenuity. The date on which this engraving was published, October 29th, 1887, adds an extra layer of historical significance. It allows us to imagine what life might have been like during that era – horse-drawn carriages passing by on cobblestone streets while people bustled about their daily routines. Westminster Palace stands proudly in the background, its grandeur complementing the majesty of Big Ben itself. This print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of both our own mortality and humanity's ability to create enduring symbols that withstand the test of time.
