EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the essence of a bygone era in the heart of England's capital city. This photo print, taken by John Crowther in the late 19th century, transports us back to a time when horse-drawn carriages filled the cobbled streets. The image showcases the magnificent Georgian architecture of Dr. Samuel Johnson's former residence on Gough Square. The building stands tall and proud with its elegant facade adorned with ornate windows and intricate detailing. It exudes an air of grandeur that is both awe-inspiring and nostalgic. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, our imagination takes flight as we envision literary greats such as Charles Dickens strolling through these very streets seeking inspiration for their timeless works. The barrels cart parked nearby adds a touch of authenticity to this scene from yesteryears. This remarkable photograph not only serves as a visual reminder of London's rich history but also pays homage to one of its most influential figures - Dr. Samuel Johnson. Known for his contributions to English literature and lexicography, he once called this house his home, making it an iconic landmark within literary circles. With Bridgeman Images' expertise in preserving historical artworks like this one, we are fortunate enough to witness moments frozen in time that allow us to connect with our past while appreciating the beauty that lies within architectural marvels like Dr. Johnson's House on Gough Square.
