EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Bishopsgate in the City of London, circa 1860. The artist, JL Stewart, skillfully captures the essence of this historic avenue with its charming row of houses at the rear of Sir Paul Pindar's 17th-century residence. Once a grand mansion, this architectural gem has since transformed into a popular tavern known as the Paul Pindar. The image transports us to a bygone era when horse-drawn carriages and cobblestone lanes were commonplace. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to these centuries-old buildings that have witnessed countless stories unfold within their walls. As we gaze upon this watercolor masterpiece, we can't help but marvel at how time has shaped this corner of England's capital city. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modernization and progress, fragments of our rich heritage remain intact. Preserved within the Guildhall Library and Art Gallery archives, this photograph offers us an invaluable glimpse into London's past. It invites us to explore not only its physical structures but also the lives lived within them – tales whispered through generations. Let this enchanting print transport you back in time as you imagine strolling along Bishopsgate's storied streets, where history meets contemporary life in perfect harmony.
