EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Charles and Mary Lamb in Trafalgar Square" transports us back to the early 20th century in England. The image depicts Charles and Mary Lamb, renowned writers of their time, standing amidst the bustling grandeur of Trafalgar Square. The lithograph is a reproduction from the book "Story-Lives of Great Authors" by Francis Jameson Rowbotham, published around 1904. It beautifully captures the essence of these literary figures who have left an indelible mark on English literature. Charles Lamb was a celebrated essayist and critic, while his sister Mary was known for her poignant poetry and contributions to children's literature. Together, they formed a formidable duo that greatly influenced the literary landscape of their era. In this illustration, we see Charles and Mary Lamb engrossed in conversation against the backdrop of iconic landmarks such as Nelson's Column and St Martin-in-the-Fields church. Their presence exudes intellectuality and creativity as they stand surrounded by fellow writers who frequented this vibrant square. The artist H. J Rhodes skillfully brings out the historical significance of this moment through intricate details captured in lithography. This print serves as a window into history, allowing us to witness firsthand the lives of these great authors during a pivotal period in British literature. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from its private collection, reminding us once again of the enduring legacy left behind by Charles and Mary Lamb.
