EDITORS COMMENTS
. This stunning colour lithograph print, created by Herbert Kerr Rooke in 1924, transports us back to the bustling streets of London. Measuring an impressive 72x36 cm, this artwork captures the essence of a bygone era and showcases the city's vibrant atmosphere. The focal point of the image is a majestic tugboat gracefully navigating the mighty Thames River. With St Pauls Cathedral and several bridges serving as its backdrop, this scene exudes grandeur and elegance. Published by Waterlow & Sons Ltd. , it was originally intended as an advertisement for London County Council Tramways. The poster not only promotes public transportation but also celebrates the beauty and allure of England's capital city. The artist skillfully incorporates vivid colours that bring life to every detail - from the boats gliding along the river to pedestrians strolling on embankments. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported back in time - imagining ourselves aboard one of those trams traversing through historic landmarks. This print serves as a reminder of how transport has shaped our cities over time while showcasing Britain's rich cultural heritage. Preserved within the archives at London Metropolitan Archives, City of London, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. It stands as a testament to Rooke's artistic prowess and his ability to capture both everyday scenes and iconic landmarks in
