EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling atmosphere of the interior of the new Exeter Change in 19th century London. The image showcases a vibrant shopping arcade filled with men and women going about their daily activities. The Exeter Change, located on the Strand, was a popular destination for both locals and visitors alike. Its grand architecture is evident in this engraving, as ornate columns line the spacious hallways, leading to various shops and stalls. Women can be seen browsing through merchandise while elegantly dressed men engage in conversations or examine goods on display. The energy within the exchange is palpable as people move from one shop to another, creating a sense of liveliness. Published in Illustrated London News in July 1844, this print offers us a glimpse into an era where shopping arcades were not just places for commerce but also social hubs where people gathered to see and be seen. The attention to detail captured by the English School artist allows us to appreciate not only the architectural beauty of Exeter Change but also provides insight into everyday life during that time period. This print serves as a visual reminder of how public spaces like Exeter Change played an integral role in shaping society's interactions and providing opportunities for leisurely pursuits amidst bustling city life.
