EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of 19th century London. The image captures a charming view of no. 185 Fleet Street, with its striking gabled terrace house facade standing tall against the backdrop of a busy urban scene. As we peer into this snapshot from history, figures can be seen strolling past Knights Templars Coffee and Chop House, adding life and movement to the scene. The coffee shop's inviting shop front beckons passersby to step inside and indulge in a warm cup of Victorian-era brew. The intricate details of the building's architecture showcase the beauty of vernacular design during that period. The carefully crafted gable adds an elegant touch to the overall composition, while also serving as a reminder of London's rich architectural heritage. Through this painting by James Findlay, we are transported to an era where horse-drawn carriages roamed these very streets and gas lamps illuminated the night sky. It is a glimpse into a bygone era that evokes nostalgia for simpler times. Displayed at Guildhall Art Gallery in City of London, this artwork serves as a window into our city's vibrant past. It reminds us how even amidst progress and change, certain elements endure - like the charm found in historical buildings that continue to grace our modern landscape.
