EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling Trafalgar Square of 1852. The skilled artists, Day & Son, have beautifully captured this iconic London landmark with intricate detail and vibrant colors. As we gaze upon the image, our eyes are immediately drawn towards the magnificent National Gallery standing tall at one end of the square. Its grandeur is complemented by the elegant spire of St Martin-in-the-Fields Church on its side. The scene comes alive as horse-drawn carriages gracefully navigate around the square, carrying passengers from one destination to another. Soldiers on horseback add a touch of military presence while pedestrians go about their daily activities amidst this lively atmosphere. Nelson's Column proudly stands at the center of Trafalgar Square, honoring Admiral Lord Nelson's heroic victory in the Battle of Trafalgar. This towering monument serves as a reminder of Britain's rich naval history and resilience during times of war. As we delve into this snapshot from yesteryears, it becomes evident that religion played an integral role in society during that era. The Church of St Martin-in-the-Fields stands as a testament to Christianity's influence over people's lives and beliefs. This lithograph transports us back to a time when transportation was predominantly reliant on horses and carriages. It offers us a glimpse into how people moved around this thriving city before modern road transport took over. In summary, this remarkable image captures not only architectural marvels but also glimpses into everyday
