EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Horse Guards under Fire again" by Durand, Godefroy takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London. The scene depicted is a sketch in Whitehall during the re-paving of the road, showcasing the artist's attention to detail and his ability to capture everyday life with precision. The Horse Guards Parade, an iconic location in London, serves as the backdrop for this artwork. As workers diligently work on surfacing and re-paving the road, chaos ensues when a fire breaks out unexpectedly. The horses are startled, their riders struggling to maintain control amidst the commotion. Durand's artistic style transports us back in time, allowing us to witness this dramatic event unfold before our eyes. His use of light and shadow adds depth and intensity to the scene while capturing every intricate detail of both human figures and architectural elements. As we observe this artwork today, it serves as a reminder of not only London's rich history but also showcases Durand's talent as an artist. This piece stands as a testament to his ability to immortalize significant moments through his artistry. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable print from its private collection so that viewers can appreciate both its historical significance and artistic merit.
