EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Langham Hotel, circa 1876. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their talent for capturing the essence of this iconic London landmark is undeniable. Designed by John Giles and constructed between 1863 and 1865 in Marylebone, the Langham Hotel exudes grandeur and elegance. Intriguingly, this photograph reveals a snapshot of history as it depicts a bustling scene from the late 19th century. People can be seen in the background, going about their day amidst the opulent backdrop of one of London's most luxurious establishments. The Langham Hotel was truly ahead of its time, as evidenced by its installation of electric light in both its entrance and courtyard in 1879. The architectural beauty displayed here is awe-inspiring; with its imposing facade and large windows that allow natural light to flood into its interior spaces. This monochrome engraving transports us back to an era when horse-drawn carriages were a common sight on city streets. Preserved within these lines are not only images but also stories - tales woven into every brick that make up this historic building. As we gaze upon this print, we cannot help but marvel at how much has changed since then while appreciating how certain landmarks continue to stand tall against the test of time. This piece from "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, and Its Places" by Edward Walford allows us to glimpse into a bygone era where luxury met innovation in one extraordinary hotel – The Langham.
