EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of Mansion House in London during the mid-18th century. The image showcases the magnificent exterior of this iconic building, situated in the heart of the city. Lombard Street takes center stage, bustling with activity as horse-drawn coaches traverse its cobblestone streets. Figures can be seen going about their daily lives, adding a sense of life to this historic scene. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the photograph, allowing us to transport ourselves back to an era long gone. Thomas Bowles masterfully engraved this piece, showcasing his skill in capturing intricate architectural details and street scenes. Mansion House stands tall and proud among other buildings lining Cornhill on the left side of the image. Its impressive architecture is a testament to London's rich history and cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this picture, we are reminded of how transportation has evolved over time. Three coaches elegantly make their way through the busy streets, providing a glimpse into 18th-century road transport. This remarkable print is now housed at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery for all admirers of history and art to appreciate. It serves as a window into London's past, offering us a glimpse into an enchanting world that once was - forever frozen in black and white beauty.
