EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "London University from Old Gower Muse, 1835" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London during the early 19th century. The artwork, created by George Sidney Shepherd, showcases a picturesque scene featuring the iconic Wilkins Building of London University. As we gaze upon this piece, our eyes are immediately drawn to the grandeur and elegance of the architecture. The Wilkins Building stands tall and proud with its magnificent dome dominating the skyline. Designed by William Wilkins himself, this structure is a testament to his architectural prowess. The streets below are teeming with activity as Londoners go about their daily lives. Carriages and coaches traverse through the city's busy thoroughfares while residents engage in various tasks such as washing clothes or tending to their dairy businesses. The townhouses lining the street exude an air of sophistication and charm. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of pencil and watercolor on paper. From the hay strewn across carriages to intricate porticos adorning residences, each element adds depth and authenticity to this snapshot of life in Bloomsbury. Preserved within UCL Art Museum at University College London, this artwork allows us a glimpse into a bygone era that shaped one of Britain's most prestigious educational institutions. It serves as a reminder not only of historical significance but also celebrates artistry that transcends time.
