EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph that captures a momentous event in London's history. Created by Allan Stewart in 1902, this print showcases the impressive spectacle of the city's fire service at work. In this vibrant image, we see an array of motor fire engines and horse-drawn engines gathered together in Victoria Park. The chairman, Captain Wells, stands proudly amidst the chaos as firefighters battle a blazing building nearby. The annual display serves as both a demonstration of their skills and an opportunity for public appreciation. The scene is filled with action and excitement as firefighters diligently carry out their duties while onlookers watch in awe. The presence of esteemed individuals such as Earl Carrington and Sir John McDougall adds to the significance of this occasion. Stewart's attention to detail brings every element to life - from the powerful horses pulling the engines to Lady McDougall observing from her carriage. This engraving truly captures not only the heroism and dedication of those involved but also highlights how essential these emergency services are for our community's safety. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to London's rich history and reminds us all of the bravery exhibited by our firefighters throughout time. It stands as a tribute to their unwavering commitment to protecting lives and property against devastating fires.
