EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "C4, south Leeds, Hunslet, Thorp, Middleton, Rothwell Haigh & Carlton" captures a detailed map of the area in 1849. Created by Joshua Thorp and later surveyed and corrected by Martin & Fox in Leeds, this print offers a fascinating glimpse into the landscape of the time. The intricate details showcased in this artwork provide a visual representation of how these areas appeared during the 19th century. From the winding roads to the clusters of buildings and open fields surrounding them, every element is meticulously depicted. The vibrant colours used to enhance this engraving add an extra layer of charm to its historical significance. The hand-colouring technique brings life to each section of the map and allows viewers to imagine what it might have been like to walk through these streets over 170 years ago. Leeds Museums and Galleries (Leeds Art Gallery) holds this piece as part of their collection. It is just one detail from a larger map measuring ten miles around Leeds. This particular print showcases C4 along with several other notable locations such as Hunslet, Thorp, Middleton, Rothwell Haigh & Carlton. As we explore this artwork today, we are reminded not only of our rich history but also how much our surroundings have changed over time. It serves as a reminder that even though landscapes may transform throughout centuries; their stories remain etched within art like this remarkable engraving.
