EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Gough Square, London in the year 1881. The talented artist, John Crowther, skillfully captures the essence of this historic location with his watercolour brushstrokes. The focal point of the image is none other than Dr Samuel Johnson's house at number 17, a significant landmark that holds great literary importance. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we are transported to a bustling avenue in 19th century Britain. Horse-drawn vehicles traverse the road while pedestrians go about their daily routines. The vibrant colours bring life to the scene and highlight the architectural beauty of buildings lining both sides of Gough Square. Dr Samuel Johnson was an eminent English writer and lexicographer who resided in this very house during his lifetime. Known for his contributions to literature and language through works like "A Dictionary of the English Language" he left an indelible mark on British culture. The Guildhall Library and Art Gallery can be seen adjacent to Dr Johnson's residence, adding further charm to this picturesque setting. This photograph not only showcases a specific location but also offers a glimpse into everyday life during that era. John Crowther's attention to detail allows us to appreciate both historical significance and artistic talent within one frame. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and invites us to explore more about Dr Samuel Johnson's legacy as well as London's vibrant past.
