EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling town square of Antwerp in 1850. The focal point of the image is the magnificent Town Hall, a true masterpiece of Renaissance architecture. Its grandeur is emphasized by the elevated view from which this photo was taken. In this lively scene, people from all walks of life can be seen going about their day. Men and women stroll through the square, some accompanied by their faithful canine companions. The presence of animals adds an element of charm to this snapshot of city life in Flanders. The intricate details captured by Shury & Son's engraving bring out the beauty and intricacy of each building facade surrounding the Town Hall. This monochrome depiction transports us to a time when Antwerp was at its peak as a thriving Belgian city. As we observe this 19th-century vista, it becomes clear that Antwerp's Town Hall served not only as a symbol of power but also as a gathering place for both locals and visitors alike. It stands tall amidst a backdrop filled with background figures, adding depth and character to this historical moment frozen in time. This remarkable print serves as both an artistic representation and valuable documentation of Antwerp's architectural heritage during one era gone by.
