EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Frozen Thames, Seagulls circling round Cleopatra's Needle" transports us back to a winter scene in 19th century London. The image captures the frozen expanse of the River Thames, with its icy surface stretching as far as the eye can see. In this desolate yet mesmerizing setting, seagulls gracefully circle around Cleopatra's Needle - an ancient Egyptian obelisk that found its way to the heart of England. The artist skillfully portrays the stillness and tranquility of this frozen moment in time. The contrast between the motionless river and the graceful movement of seagulls creates a sense of ethereal beauty. It is as if time has stood still, freezing both nature and history in perfect harmony. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how nature can transform even familiar landmarks into something extraordinary. The juxtaposition of ancient monuments against a wintry backdrop evokes a sense of awe and wonderment. "The Frozen Thames" not only showcases exceptional artistic talent but also serves as a historical document capturing London's past winters when temperatures were cold enough for rivers to freeze over. This engraving from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both artistry and history simultaneously while immersing ourselves in an enchanting moment frozen forever on paper.
