EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The High Tide: overflow of the Thames on Tuesday" takes us back to a historic moment in London's past. Captured by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this engraving showcases the dramatic flooding that occurred on February 2nd, 1850. As we gaze upon this image, our eyes are immediately drawn to the Hungerford Suspension Bridge standing tall amidst the chaos. The overflowing waters of the Thames surround it, threatening to engulf nearby buildings and streets. The architecture along York Road is partially submerged, giving us a glimpse into how life must have been during this extraordinary event. Originally published in The London Illustrated News, this print offers a fascinating insight into a significant moment in London's history. It serves as a reminder of nature's power and its ability to disrupt even the most bustling city. With Vine Street visible in the background and Lambeth just beyond it, we can almost feel ourselves transported back to that fateful day. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill behind its creation and its historical significance. Whether you're an admirer of fine art or someone with an interest in London's past, "The High Tide: overflow of the Thames on Tuesday" is sure to captivate your imagination and transport you back through time.
