EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to 19th century London, capturing the serene beauty of Holborn Valley and Snow Hill before the construction of the Viaduct transformed this landscape forever. The print, part of a private collection, showcases an illustration from Edward Walford's renowned book "Old and New London" published around 1880. The scene depicted in this digitally cleaned image is both enchanting and evocative. Lush greenery blankets Holborn Valley, while charming cottages dot the countryside. Snow Hill rises majestically in the distance, its slopes covered in a pristine layer of snow that adds a touch of winter magic to the scenery. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, it becomes evident that change is imminent. The viaduct looms large over the valley, its construction poised to reshape this idyllic setting forever. Yet for now, we are granted a glimpse into a bygone era when nature reigned supreme and urbanization had yet to leave its mark on London's skyline. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of artistry from English School with utmost care and attention to detail. Through their efforts, we can appreciate not only the technical skill involved in creating such engravings but also gain insight into how our world has evolved over time.
