EDITORS COMMENTS
DORÉ: LONDON, 1872. A River-Side Street captures the essence of late Victorian London in a single frame. This wood engraving, skillfully crafted after Gustave Doré's original artwork, transports us back to a bustling cityscape teeming with life and activity. In this scene, we find ourselves immersed in the heart of a vibrant street. The architecture reflects the grandeur of English craftsmanship while also revealing signs of wear and tear that come with time. People from all walks of life populate the scene - workers going about their daily tasks, pedestrians strolling along the riverbank, and children playing amidst it all. The image offers a glimpse into the realities faced by those living in slums during this era. It serves as a powerful reminder of the stark contrast between wealth and poverty that defined Victorian society. Yet despite these hardships, there is an undeniable energy present on every corner; an unyielding spirit that propelled London forward. This print from The Granger Collection beautifully encapsulates both historical significance and artistic mastery. It invites viewers to embark on a visual pilgrimage through time – to witness firsthand how ordinary people lived and worked in one of history's most iconic cities. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply captivated by history, 'DORÉ: LONDON' is sure to transport you back to this remarkable period.
