EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the bustling city of London in 1756. The print showcases Sadlers Wells, a renowned theatre that has stood the test of time. Its grand architecture and imposing fence command attention, while its location near the riverbank adds an element of charm. In this snapshot of history, we see people going about their day along the canal that runs adjacent to the theater. Men and women stroll leisurely, engaging in conversations or simply enjoying the vibrant atmosphere. A lady elegantly walks by, her attire reflecting the fashion trends of the eighteenth century. The illustration captures not only a specific moment but also provides insight into life during this era. It serves as a window into a world where transportation was primarily by water rather than roadways crowded with vehicles. Walter Thornbury's meticulous engraving skillfully brings together various elements: from architectural details to geographical features like Finsbury and Islington surrounding Sadlers Wells Theatre. This print is a testament to Thornbury's talent as well as his dedication to preserving historical landmarks through art. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene frozen in time, we are reminded of London's rich heritage and how it continues to shape our present-day cityscape.
