EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving of London Bridge, created by Joseph Farington in 1795, takes us back to a time when the iconic structure stood proudly over the River Thames. The print showcases the bustling activity that surrounded this historic landmark during its heyday. In the foreground, we see a variety of boats gracefully gliding along the river's surface. From large sailing vessels to smaller rowboats and even a tugboat, each vessel contributes to the vibrant atmosphere of this thriving port city. The water is alive with movement as people go about their daily activities on board these vessels. London Bridge itself stands tall and majestic in the background, adorned with intricate architectural details that speak to its grandeur. Its stone arches span across the river, connecting both sides of this bustling metropolis. The presence of a monument atop one of London Bridge's towers adds an air of significance and reverence to this scene. It serves as a reminder that history has been made here; countless stories have unfolded upon these very waters. Farington's masterful engraving captures not only the physical beauty but also the spirit and energy that defined London at this time. It invites us to imagine ourselves stepping into this moment in history – witnessing firsthand how life thrived around one of England's most iconic landmarks.
