EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the bustling streets of Ray Street, Clerkenwell, in 1820. The English School artist skillfully captures the essence of this historical moment, offering a glimpse into London's rich past. The image showcases a vibrant scene filled with activity and life. People from all walks of life can be seen going about their daily routines - merchants selling their wares, pedestrians strolling along the cobblestone streets, and horse-drawn carriages passing by. The architecture reflects the era's charm and character, with Georgian-style buildings lining both sides of the street. Ray Street itself exudes an undeniable sense of history and heritage. It was a place where stories were woven into every brick and cobblestone; where dreams were pursued amidst the hustle and bustle of city life. This print is part of Walter Thornbury's renowned work "Old and New London" which aimed to capture authentic glimpses into the city's past through engravings sourced from various artists. This particular image has been digitally cleaned to restore its original beauty for our viewing pleasure. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to witness a snapshot of 19th-century England - a testament to how far we have come while honoring our shared history.
