EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of London in 1897. The image showcases "The Old Bedford Head" a historic pub located on Maiden Lane in Covent Garden. The skilled artist, B Fleming, beautifully captures the architectural grandeur of this Victorian-era building. As we explore the scene, we are transported to a time when horse-drawn carriages shared the road with pedestrians going about their daily routines. Men and women can be seen strolling along the avenue, adding life and movement to this busy cityscape. The facade of "The Old Bedford Head" stands proudly amidst its surroundings, exuding an air of history and charm. Its prominent sign invites passersby into its welcoming atmosphere—a quintessential English tavern where locals would gather for drinks and conversation. This monochrome snapshot is not just a mere depiction; it represents an era long gone but forever preserved through artistry. It serves as a testament to Edward Walford's publication "Old and New London Vol 111" which aimed to capture the essence of England's capital city during different periods. "The Old Bedford Head" print transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic merit. It reminds us that even as cities evolve over centuries, there will always be remnants of our past waiting to be discovered within their walls.
