EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of Bartholomew Close, London in the year 1889. The talented artist John Crowther skillfully depicts the scene, showcasing buildings numbered 35 and 53 on opposite sides of a narrowing street. As we explore this snapshot from the past, our attention is drawn to a charming greengrocers shop on the right side of the image. The photograph transports us back to the bustling atmosphere of late 19th century London. The city's vibrant energy is palpable as people go about their daily activities along this avenue. The color and detail in Crowther's watercolour painting bring life to each building lining Bartholomew Close. Located near Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this historic lane holds stories within its walls. It serves as a testament to London's rich architectural heritage, with its diverse array of shops and businesses that once thrived here. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, it becomes clear that Crowther possessed an incredible talent for capturing not only physical structures but also the essence of a place frozen in time. This print offers viewers an opportunity to step into history and appreciate both the artistry behind it and the fascinating details that make up Bartholomew Close in 1889.
