EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to 19th century London, offering a glimpse into the bustling urbanization of the city. The image showcases a view from behind typical artisan terrace houses, revealing their unique features such as washhouses, privies, and yards. These houses stand in harmony with similar terraces that stretch along an alleyway serving them and their neighboring counterparts. However, what truly dominates this scene are the imposing railway viaducts that have been superimposed on this quaint neighborhood. They symbolize the rapid expansion of rail transport during this era and its transformative impact on London's landscape. The wood engraving technique used to capture this moment adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its historical significance. It is evident that artists Gustave Dore and Blanchard Jerrold had embarked on a pilgrimage through London in 1872 to document these remarkable sights for posterity. As we gaze upon this photograph print today, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how transportation infrastructure reshaped cities like London during the 19th century. It serves as a reminder of our ever-evolving world and how progress leaves its mark on every corner of civilization.
