EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and nostalgic print captures the enchanting atmosphere of Lowther Arcade from London Town. Created as a colour lithograph by T. Crane and E. Houghton in the 19th century, this piece is part of the esteemed Anthony Crane Collection in the UK. Lowther Arcade, immortalized in the popular song "the Tin Gee-Gee" of 1891, was a Victorian walkway adorned with charming toyshops that lined its path from Strand to Adelaide Street. The arcade served as a haven for both young and old, attracting customers with its whimsical displays and delightful array of toys. In this scene, children can be seen eagerly peering into shop windows while their parents accompany them on their magical journey through this toy wonderland. The shops themselves are filled to the brim with an assortment of playthings - dolls, trains, teddy bears - all waiting to bring joy to those who enter. The image evokes a sense of innocence and wonderment that is often associated with childhood memories. It transports us back to a time when simple pleasures were found within these walls, where dreams came alive through imagination and play. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are reminded of the enduring appeal of traditional toyshops and how they continue to hold a special place in our hearts even amidst today's digital age.
