EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the picturesque south end of Fairfax House, located on High Street in Putney, London. The image was captured by the talented artist John Crowther around 1887, during the vibrant 19th century era. With its charming avenue and quintessentially British buildings, this scene exudes a sense of timeless beauty. The color and detail in this print bring to life the enchanting exterior of Fairfax House. Nestled amidst nature's embrace, it stands as a testament to England's rich architectural heritage. The lush greenery surrounding the building adds an element of tranquility to the bustling street. As you gaze at this artwork, you can almost feel yourself transported back in time to a simpler era when horse-drawn carriages traversed these roads. The stone wall and gateway leading into Fairfax House evoke a sense of grandeur and elegance that is characteristic of English country estates. John Crowther masterfully captures not just a building but also an entire atmosphere with his watercolor technique. This piece is now preserved for posterity thanks to Guildhall Library and Art Gallery. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply appreciate historical charm, this print serves as a delightful reminder of London's past glory. It invites us to marvel at the harmonious blend between man-made structures and natural surroundings that make places like Putney so special.
