EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Long Room in the Custom-House, from London Interiors with their Costumes" takes us back in time to the bustling customs office of 19th century London. The steel engraving, created by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd and published by Joseph Mead in 1843, beautifully captures the grandeur and intricacy of this English architectural gem. The image showcases a long room filled with British officials dressed in their traditional costumes, engaged in the important task of collecting customs payments. Every detail is meticulously portrayed, from the ornate ceiling adorned with chandeliers to the rows of desks where officers diligently attend to their duties. This snapshot into Victorian life provides a glimpse into one of London's significant administrative hubs during that era. The lithograph highlights not only the impressive architecture but also offers insight into social customs and ceremonies surrounding commerce at that time. It serves as a testament to both historical importance and artistic skill. Part of The Stapleton Collection, this print is an invaluable piece for collectors or enthusiasts interested in English history or architecture. Its presence evokes nostalgia for a bygone era when meticulous attention was given to every aspect of design and administration. A true treasure from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection that transports viewers back through time while celebrating our rich cultural heritage.
