EDITORS COMMENTS
The early days of our century - Piccadilly, London, in 1800; colour plate (colour litho) captures the vibrant essence of a bygone era. This print by Gordon Frederick Browne takes us back to the bustling streets of Piccadilly during the turn of the 19th century. In this lively scene, we are transported to a time when horse-drawn carriages and post chaises ruled the roads. The elegant carriages glide past as pedestrians stroll along the sidewalks adorned with gas lamps that cast a warm glow upon their path. Amongst them, a beggar clad in tattered clothing seeks alms from passersby, reminding us of the social disparities that existed even then. The image also showcases various modes of transportation prevalent at that time. A velocipede or early bicycle can be seen ridden by an adventurous soul, while racehorses gallop alongside ponies and shire horses. The presence of these magnificent animals adds an element of liveliness and energy to this snapshot from history. Browne's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully depicts every aspect – from intricate dress styles to architectural details – transporting us back two centuries ago. With its vivid colors and meticulous composition, this artwork offers a glimpse into London's rich heritage and serves as a testament to how much has changed over time. This remarkable piece invites viewers on a journey through time, allowing us to marvel at the sights and sounds that once filled Piccadilly's streets in
