EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling cityscape of London's Royal Exchange in the late 19th century. The Royal Exchange, established in the 16th century as a hub of commerce for the City of London, stands proudly at its center. Designed by William Tite in the 1840s, this neoclassical architectural marvel dominates the scene with its grand facade and majestic columns. The streets are alive with activity as horse-drawn carriages and omnibuses navigate through a sea of commuters. The turn-of-the-century hustle and bustle is palpable, reflecting London's status as a thriving capital of trade and finance. As one gazes upon this photograph, they are transported back in time to an era when banking institutions like Lloyds of London reigned supreme. Pedestrians traverse Threadneedle Street while others gather around Cornhill, engrossed in their daily routines amidst towering pillars and classical friezes. The image encapsulates not only the architectural beauty but also serves as a testament to London's enduring legacy as a global commercial district. It offers us a glimpse into Victorian society and reminds us that even then, public transport played an integral role in shaping urban life. With every detail meticulously captured through photomechanical techniques, this stunning piece from Detroit Publishing Co. 's private collection evokes nostalgia for an era long gone yet forever etched into history.
