EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London. The image showcases no 2 Blackhorse Alley, a charming building nestled in Fleet Street, City of London. Painted by the talented artist James Findlay, this watercolour captures the essence of a bygone era. As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported to a time when horse-drawn carriages roamed these cobblestone streets. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to the buildings that line both sides of the road. People can be seen strolling along the sidewalk, going about their daily routines amidst the hustle and bustle. Blackhorse Alley itself exudes an air of mystery and intrigue. It is as if each brick holds secrets from centuries past. This enchanting lane leads our imagination down a path filled with tales waiting to be discovered. The Guildhall Library and Art Gallery proudly houses this remarkable piece, allowing visitors to step into history with every glance at its delicate brushstrokes. Through Findlay's skilled hand, he has immortalized not just a physical location but also captured the spirit of England during this transformative period. This print serves as a window into another time—a snapshot frozen in paint that invites us to explore and appreciate Britain's rich heritage for generations to come.
