This 19th-century print, part of a private collection, takes us back to an era when bustling streets and cozy public houses were at the heart of city life. The image showcases the tavern's entrance, inviting passersby to step inside and experience its warm hospitality. The intricate details of the engraving highlight the architectural beauty of the building, with its classic facade and ornate features. Two fireplaces can be seen in this depiction, adding to the cozy ambiance that would have welcomed patrons seeking respite from chilly London winters. These hearths served as gathering spots for locals and visitors alike, fostering lively conversations over pints of ale or glasses of whiskey.
