EDITORS COMMENTS
The Banquet Celebrating the Grand Opening of Grainger Market in Newcastle upon Tyne, c. 1835". This print captures a momentous occasion in the history of Newcastle upon Tyne - the grand opening banquet of the iconic Grainger Market. Painted by Henry Perlee Parker, this oil on canvas masterpiece brings to life the elegance and splendor of this remarkable event. The scene is set within a magnificent hall adorned with Victorian architecture, where distinguished guests are seated at long tables covered in pristine white tablecloths. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and anticipation as attendees gather to celebrate this significant milestone for both commerce and community. Flags proudly wave overhead, displaying their vibrant colors against a backdrop of ornate banners that pay homage to British heritage. The room buzzes with conversation and laughter as participants engage in lively discussions amidst an air of formality. This painting not only immortalizes an important historical moment but also showcases the architectural beauty of Grainger Market itself. Its grandeur serves as a testament to Joseph Granger's vision for a thriving commercial hub that would become an integral part of Newcastle's identity. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the joyous festivities that marked the birth of one of England's most beloved markets - forever etching its place in history.
