EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Norman London in the year 1908. The image is sourced from "Early London - Prehistoric, Roman, Saxon and Norman" a remarkable book by Sir Walter Besant. Published by Adam & Charles Black in London, this piece of art captures the essence of a city steeped in history. The monochrome photograph showcases the architectural wonders and bustling streets of early 20th century London. It serves as a window into an era when horse-drawn carriages traversed cobblestone roads, gas lamps illuminated the night sky, and towering buildings stood as testaments to human ingenuity. Sir Walter Besant's expertise in cartography shines through this image; his attention to detail allows viewers to immerse themselves in the geography and layout of England's capital city during that period. The Western script text accompanying the photo adds depth to our understanding of its significance. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back over a century ago. We can almost hear the sounds of horse hooves echoing through narrow alleyways while imagining what life was like for those who walked these very streets long before us. This print is not just a visual delight; it is also a valuable historical artifact that connects us with our British heritage. Its presence reminds us how far we have come while honoring those who came before us – shaping London into what it is today.
