EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of the renowned "National History and Views of London" engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century. Housed in a private collection, this historical masterpiece offers a fascinating glimpse into London's rich heritage. The intricate illustration on the title page depicts a horse-drawn carriage gracefully passing through the turnpike at the north entrance into London's vibrant district of Islington. Published in 1835, this artwork is not only aesthetically pleasing but also serves as a valuable resource for understanding the city's antiquities. Transporting us back to a bygone era, this image captures both street scenes and people from that time period. The presence of horse-drawn carriages emphasizes how different transportation was during those days compared to our modern world. Moreover, this engraving sheds light on toll roads and their significance within London's history. It symbolizes an era when travelers had to pay fees at these turnpikes before entering or exiting certain areas. Preserved by Look and Learn / Peter Jackson Collection, this remarkable piece represents national history at its finest. Its inclusion in Fine Art Finder allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its beauty while delving deeper into London's past.
