EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London. The image showcases James Rimells bookshop, a charming establishment located at the corner of Dean Street and Oxford Street in Soho House. The building stands tall amidst a sea of other structures, representing an era when independent booksellers thrived in this vibrant city. The photograph captures the essence of British life during this time period, with people going about their daily routines on the busy street outside. It offers a glimpse into the occupation and profession of bookselling, as customers browse through shelves filled with literary treasures. The monochrome aesthetic adds a touch of nostalgia to the scene, transporting us to a bygone era where simplicity reigned supreme. The shop sign proudly displays its name, drawing attention from passersby who may be enticed by its offerings. As we gaze upon this historical gem, we can't help but marvel at how much has changed since then. Yet it also serves as a reminder that some things remain timeless - our love for literature and the joy found within these walls still resonates today. This print is part of an extensive collection housed at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery in Westminster. It allows us to connect with our past while appreciating the rich cultural heritage that defines our present-day cityscape.
