EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Thames Head, a reputed source of the river" takes us back to 19th century England and offers a glimpse into the physical origins of one of the most iconic rivers in the world. The image showcases Thames Head, a renowned location believed to be where the mighty River Thames begins its journey. The intricate details captured by this English School engraving transport us to this significant geographical site. We can almost feel the coolness of the spring water as it emerges from beneath lush greenery, symbolizing new life and rejuvenation. This print was originally featured in "Our Earth and Its Story" edited by Robert Brown around 1890, making it an invaluable historical artifact. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of how nature's wonders have fascinated humanity throughout history. The Thames River holds immense cultural significance for England and has played a vital role in shaping its landscape and heritage. Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate this remarkable piece that not only celebrates the beauty of our planet but also invites contemplation on our connection with nature. It serves as a reminder that even something as grand as a river starts from humble beginnings – here at Thames Head – before embarking on its long journey through time and space.
