EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph print captures the bustling and vibrant street scenes of London in the 19th century. From a young boy chimney sweep to a cab driver, an orange seller to a water board man turning a stopcock, each character depicted adds depth and charm to this historical snapshot.
Illustrated by Horace William Petherick for a children's book published in London around 1875, these scenes come alive with authenticity and detail. The lamplighter lighting a gas street lamp, the market vendor selling oranges, and the men digging up the road all contribute to the rich tapestry of British culture portrayed in this artwork.
The energy and liveliness of city life are palpable in this image, as real people go about their daily routines against the backdrop of historic London architecture. The diversity of characters - from young boys to mature men - highlights the various roles that made up society at that time.
As you gaze upon this print, you can almost hear the sounds of carriages clattering by and vendors calling out their wares. It is a window into another era, inviting us to step back in time and immerse ourselves in the sights and sounds of Victorian London.
