EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London's Leicester Square in 1753. The engraving, skillfully created by Thomas Bowles, offers a glimpse into the vibrant atmosphere of this Georgian era square. As we gaze upon the image, our eyes are immediately drawn to the elegant horse-drawn carriages that traverse the cobbled streets. These carriages, with their ornate designs and regal presence, showcase the opulence and grandeur of this bygone era. The architecture surrounding Leicester Square is truly remarkable. The buildings exude a sense of timeless beauty with their intricate detailing and classic English charm. They stand as proud witnesses to centuries past, silently narrating stories of countless lives lived within their walls. The cobblestone pavement adds an authentic touch to this scene from history. Each stone seems to hold its own story - tales of footsteps echoing through time and wheels rolling over them for generations. Leicester Square itself appears alive with activity. People stroll along its pathways, engaging in animated conversations or perhaps enjoying a leisurely afternoon promenade. The square serves as a meeting place for socializing and entertainment - a hub where people come together to experience culture and revelry. This print transports us back in time, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the rich tapestry of London's past. It reminds us that even amidst progress and change, there will always be glimpses into history that captivate our imagination and connect us with those who came before
