EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1856 showcases the W.H. Smith Office on The Strand in London, a bustling hub of activity during that time. The exterior of No. 184 is depicted with intricate detail, giving us a glimpse into the historical significance of this building as a newspaper clearing-house for the renowned W.H. Smith company.
The image captures the essence of Victorian-era London, with its grand architecture and bustling streets filled with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians going about their daily business. It serves as a window into a bygone era when newspapers were an essential part of everyday life, and companies like W.H. Smith played a crucial role in distributing news to the masses.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to a time when print media was king, and news traveled at a slower pace than it does today. The importance of this building as an office for one of the most influential companies in British history is evident in every line and shadow captured by the artist's hand.
This engraving is not just a snapshot of a moment in time; it is a piece of living history that reminds us of how far we have come since those days on The Strand in 1856.
