The Rush Hour by the Royal Exchange from Queen Victoria Street, 1904
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a bustling scene in London during the early 20th century. Painted by Alexander Friedrich Werner, this oil on canvas print showcases the vibrant energy of city life at its peak. The image transports us back to a time when coaches, buses, and cab stands were the primary modes of transportation. In this artwork, we see an array of vehicles lining up along Queen Victoria Street as people scurry about their daily routines. The crowd is filled with individuals wearing top hats and elegant attire, reflecting the social status and fashion trends of that era. The Royal Exchange stands tall in the background, serving as a majestic backdrop to this lively street scene. Nestled amidst all the hustle and bustle are glimpses of architectural beauty that define London's charm. This painting also highlights the significance of The Mercers Company - one of London's oldest livery companies - which has been an integral part of shaping the city's history since medieval times. Werner skillfully captures not just a moment in time but also evokes nostalgia for a bygone era. This print serves as a window into London's past while reminding us how much our urban landscapes have transformed over time.
