EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "The Strand, by Somerset House" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London. The artist, Joseph Pennell, beautifully captures the architectural grandeur and historical significance of this iconic location. Somerset House stands proudly in the foreground, its majestic facade adorned with intricate details that speak volumes about Victorian craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a time when horse-drawn carriages traversed the cobbled streets and gentlemen in top hats strolled along The Strand. The composition offers a glimpse into daily life during this era; people going about their business, shops lining the street, and glimpses of other notable landmarks in the distance. It is as if we are standing on a corner ourselves, taking in all that surrounds us. This lithograph was originally created as an illustration for "Charing Cross to St Pauls" a book published in 1893. Its inclusion within these pages served as both documentation and celebration of London's rich history and architectural heritage. As viewers today, we can appreciate not only Pennell's artistic talent but also gain insight into how cities evolve over time. This print serves as a reminder of our connection to history and invites us to explore further into the fascinating world captured within its frame.
