EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "View of the Tower from London Bridge, 1890" captures the essence of a bygone era. The artist, Hume Nisbet, skillfully portrays the bustling cityscape of London in the late 19th century. The misty atmosphere adds an air of mystery to the scene as it envelops the iconic Tower Bridge and its surroundings. The reflection on the calm waters of River Thames creates a mesmerizing mirror image that enhances the beauty of this historical moment. In this snapshot frozen in time, various forms of transportation can be observed. Boats and ships gracefully navigate through the river while billowing smoke fills the air from their chimneys. These vessels serve as a reminder of Britain's rich maritime heritage. The Tower of London stands tall amidst its fortifications, exuding strength and grandeur. Its imposing presence is juxtaposed against smaller buildings scattered along both sides of London Bridge. As we delve into this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back to an era when horse-drawn barges were common sights along these waterways. This print serves as a valuable geographical feature that documents not only a specific location but also offers us insight into life during that period. Preserved with care over centuries, this print allows us to appreciate Percy Fitzgerald's work in his book "Picturesque London". It is truly remarkable how such artistry continues to captivate our imagination even after all these years.
