EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 18th century, specifically to the Great North Road out of London on the 1st of July, 1790. The image showcases a colour lithograph created by an anonymous English School artist and is now part of a private collection. The print offers a unique glimpse into the cartography and geographical layout of this historical route. It depicts various landmarks along the way, including Islington, Highgate, Hampstead, St. Albans, and Hendon. These names evoke images of bustling towns and picturesque countryside that once lined this important travel artery. The vibrant colours used in this lithograph bring life to what was likely a dusty road filled with horse-drawn carriages and weary travelers embarking on their journeys. The attention to detail allows us to imagine ourselves stepping into this scene from over two centuries ago. As we admire this artwork, it's fascinating to consider how much has changed since then – both in terms of transportation and urban development. This piece serves as a reminder of our rich history while also celebrating the beauty found within maps and routes that have guided countless individuals throughout time.
