EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling streets of Bermondsey, London in 1886. This print captures the vibrant energy and charm of Bermondsey Street, a hub of activity in the heart of Southwark. The image showcases a row of shops and houses that line the avenue, each with its own unique character and story. The colorized version brings this historic scene to life, allowing us to appreciate the architectural details and intricate designs of these 19th-century buildings. From quaint shop fronts adorned with signage to charming residential homes with flower boxes at their windowsills, every element tells a tale of a bygone era. Renowned artist John Crowther skillfully captured this snapshot in watercolor, showcasing his talent for depicting English landscapes. His attention to detail is evident as he portrays not only the buildings but also the lively street scene outside - people going about their daily routines, shoppers exploring various stores, and horse-drawn carriages passing by. This remarkable piece is now preserved at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery as part of Britain's rich cultural heritage. It serves as a window into an era when Bermondsey Street was at its prime - a testament to both British craftsmanship and community spirit.
