EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling Bull and Mouth Street in London, back in 1806. Painted by the talented artist Valentine Davis, this view of the yard at the Bull and Mouth Inn in St Martins le Grand showcases a vibrant scene filled with carriages and figures going about their daily activities. The image takes us on a journey to the heart of 19th-century London, where buildings stand tall as testaments to a bygone era. The Bull and Mouth Inn itself serves as a focal point, its exterior exuding charm and character that has stood the test of time. Located in close proximity to Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this street was not only an important hub for commerce but also played a significant role in religious life. Christianity thrived here, evident from nearby churches that dotted the landscape. As we delve into this snapshot of history, we witness how industry intertwined seamlessly with religion. This service-oriented area catered to both locals and travelers alike through establishments like pubs and taverns which served as social hubs for people from all walks of life. Valentine Davis's watercolour painting beautifully captures the color and vibrancy present on these historic streets. It is truly remarkable how this artwork allows us to step back in time, immersing ourselves in the lively street life that once flourished within these city walls.
