EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Bits of Old Hackney (engraving)" takes us on a nostalgic journey through time. The image, created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, showcases the rich history and charm of Hackney, England. The scene depicted is from Walter Thornbury's book "Old and New London" published around 1890. It offers a glimpse into the past with its numerous engravings sourced from authentic references. This particular print has been digitally cleaned to enhance its visual appeal while preserving its historical significance. Brook House stands proudly in the foreground, exuding an air of elegance that transports us back to 1765 when it was built. As we explore further, our eyes are drawn to Shore Place and Barbers Barn, both architectural gems dating back to 1736 and 1750 respectively. This print not only captures the physical beauty of these landmarks but also serves as a window into the lives lived within their walls throughout history. It allows us to connect with those who walked these streets centuries ago and appreciate their contribution to shaping this vibrant neighborhood. With every glance at this enchanting image, we are reminded of Hackney's enduring legacy and how it continues to evolve while honoring its roots. A true testament to the power of art in preserving our collective heritage for generations to come.
