EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print, titled 'Elm-Tree blown down in Hyde-Park, London, May 7th, 1856' by Edmund Evans, captures the aftermath of a powerful storm that struck Hyde Park in London on that fateful day. The image portrays the uprooted elm tree, a venerable denizen on the north side of the Serpentine lake, lying in submission to the destructive forces of nature. The tree, with a circumference of approximately 18 feet, once stood proudly between the boat-house and the Government magazine, housing stores of ammunition and gunpowder. The high wind of Wednesday afternoon had wreaked havoc in the heart of the city, leaving behind a trail of damage and destruction. The once tranquil and picturesque Hyde Park was transformed into a stormy scene, as nature asserted its metaphorical might over the man-made structures and natural elements. The print, published in the Illustrated London News, provides a glimpse into the raw power of the elements, and the transient nature of even the most sturdy of creations. Edmund Evans, a renowned English engraver and printmaker, skillfully captured the essence of the scene, immortalizing it in this intricately detailed engraving. The print offers a poignant reminder of the unyielding power of nature, and the fragility of human creations in the face of its fury. The fallen elm tree, a symbol of the past, stands as a testament to the resilience of nature and the ever-changing landscape of the city of Westminster, London.
