EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the coffee-room of the Old Bell Inn in Holborn, London, in 1897. The image, a colour lithograph by Philip Norman, showcases the exquisite architecture and ambiance of this historic establishment. The room exudes an air of elegance and sophistication with its ornate furnishings and intricate details. Patrons are seen enjoying their cups of coffee amidst conversations that fill the space with warmth and liveliness. It is a snapshot frozen in time, capturing a moment when this bustling coffee-room was at its peak. However, as we delve deeper into the history behind this image, we learn that it tells a story of change and loss. The Old Bell Inn would eventually face demolition, becoming yet another victim to London's ever-changing landscape. In his book "London Vanished and Vanishing". Philip Norman painted a vivid picture of this beloved institution before it disappeared forever. This print serves as both a tribute to its grandeur and an important reminder of our architectural heritage. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene from over a century ago, let us appreciate not only the beauty captured within these walls but also reflect on how cities evolve over time – constantly changing but never forgetting their pasts.
