EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing view of the Folly in Dockhead, Bermondsey, captured in 1828 by John Chessell Buckler. The artist's pen and sepia wash drawing beautifully captures the essence of this historic London neighborhood. In this scene, we are transported back to a time when wooden structures lined the streets and the River Thames flowed gracefully nearby. The East End comes alive with its bustling activity as people go about their daily lives amidst timbered buildings and charming stilt houses. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the Folly itself - an architectural marvel that stands tall against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. Its intricate design and craftsmanship leave viewers in awe, wondering about its purpose and significance within the community. A bridge connects both sides of Dockhead, serving as a lifeline for residents to traverse between their homes and places of work. This vital link symbolizes unity and connectivity within Bermondsey. Buckler's attention to detail allows us to appreciate every aspect of this historical moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone yet forever preserved through art. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images serves as a reminder that even though times change, there will always be beauty in capturing moments from our past.
