EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling Trafalgar Square in 1903, a snapshot of London's vibrant city life at the turn of the century. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Mortimer L Menpes, known for his exquisite travel illustrations. This particular image is part of his renowned book "World Pictures" accompanied by insightful text written by Dorothy Menpes. The scene depicts Trafalgar Square as a hub of activity, with people from all walks of life going about their daily routines. The square itself stands as a symbol of British culture and heritage, surrounded by iconic landmarks such as St Martin in the Fields church. Its towering presence adds an element of religious significance to this already lively location. Menpes' monochrome portrayal captures both the grandeur and intimacy within this capital city's heart. As we observe this historical moment frozen in time, it becomes evident why Trafalgar Square remains one of London's most beloved tourist attractions even today. Through this print, we are transported back to a different era - an era where literature and art merged seamlessly with everyday life. It serves as a reminder that despite the passage of time, certain places hold onto their charm and continue to inspire generations through visual storytelling like Menpes' masterpiece here.
