EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the western entrance to Aldwych Crescent in London during the 1920s. The artist, McLeish, skillfully portrays the architectural beauty of this bustling city street. The buildings lining the road stand tall and proud, showcasing the grandeur of British architecture in the early 20th century. The image is taken from "Wonderful London" a publication edited by Arthur St John Adcock, which aimed to showcase the wonders of England's capital city. This particular illustration was featured in Volume I of the publication and was published by Amalgamated Press in 1926-1927. The monochrome composition adds a timeless quality to this snapshot of history. It transports us back to an era when horse-drawn carriages shared space with early automobiles on London's streets. The morning post newspaper can be seen prominently displayed, reminding us of how news was disseminated during that time. As we gaze at this print, we are reminded not only of London's rich architectural heritage but also its vibrant energy as people go about their daily lives along Aldwych Crescent. McLeish has captured a moment frozen in time - a glimpse into a bygone era that still holds fascination for those who appreciate both history and art.
