EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Gordons Statue, a powerful symbol of London's history. Created by artist Rose Maynard Barton in 1904, this illustration was featured in the renowned book Familiar London. The statue itself depicts Major-General Charles George Gordon, also known as Gordon of Khartoum, who played a significant role during the late 19th century. Originally erected in Trafalgar Square in 1888, this majestic sculpture stood tall until its removal in 1943. However, it found a new home on Victoria Embankment ten years later in 1953. This relocation allowed future generations to admire and appreciate General Gordon's legacy. The photograph captures the essence of Edwardian era aesthetics with its timeless charm and attention to detail. It transports viewers back to a bygone era when statues like these were not just mere decorations but symbols of honor and remembrance. Bridgeman Images has done justice to this historical masterpiece through their impeccable reproduction quality. As you gaze upon this print, you can't help but feel a sense of awe at the grandeur that once graced London's streets. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply intrigued by history, this print is sure to be a valuable addition to your collection. Its rich heritage and cultural significance make it an exceptional piece that will spark conversations for years to come.
