EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the year 1805, offering a glimpse into the bustling streets of Southwark, London. The focal point of this historical scene is the iconic Falcon Tavern, proudly standing on the Bank Side. With its grand architecture and charming allure, it serves as a testament to the rich history of this vibrant neighborhood. The artist's attention to detail transports us to an era long gone, where horse-drawn carriages navigate through cobblestone streets and pedestrians go about their daily lives. The enchanting atmosphere is further enhanced by the presence of quaint shops and buildings that line both sides of the road. This print holds particular significance as it was originally created as an illustration for Walter Besant's book "London" published in 1900. It offers viewers a unique opportunity to witness how Southwark appeared over a century ago. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of how our surroundings have evolved throughout history while still retaining elements that connect us with our past. This image encapsulates not only London's architectural heritage but also its cultural identity. Whether you are drawn to historical art or simply intrigued by London's fascinating past, this print allows you to immerse yourself in a moment frozen in time – capturing the essence of Southwark's charm as it appeared centuries ago.
