EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Bristol in 1802. The image captures the vibrant atmosphere of the North-East End of King Street, with its Welsh Market at the forefront. The scene is filled with activity as figures go about their daily routines. Horse-drawn wagons navigate through the crowded street, transporting goods and wares for sale at the market. The architecture of the buildings showcases a mix of styles, reflecting Bristol's rich history. In the distance, towering spires rise above the cityscape, indicating a place of worship that adds a sense of serenity amidst all the hustle and bustle. Ships can be seen docked nearby, reminding us of Bristol's maritime heritage. The artist Thomas Leeson Rowbotham skillfully captures this moment in time on paper using watercolors. His attention to detail brings life to each figure and building within this historical scene. This print serves as a valuable record not only for art enthusiasts but also for historians interested in studying urban development and trade practices during this period in England's history. Displayed proudly at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, this artwork stands as a testament to our shared past and invites viewers to step into an era long gone but forever preserved through artistic expression.
