EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the charm and history of old inns in Southwark, England. The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, transports us back to a bygone era. With its intricate details and fine craftsmanship, it offers a glimpse into the past. The image features several iconic establishments such as the Catherine Wheel Inn, Old Croyden House, Queens Head Inn, and Kings Head Inn. Each inn exudes character and tells its own unique story. The presence of a dog adds warmth to the scene while emphasizing the lively atmosphere that once filled these historic buildings. Notably, a bear can be seen standing beside one of the inns—a fascinating reminder of how wildlife was often incorporated into everyday life during this time period. A man with a walking stick or cane strolls leisurely through Southwark's streets, further enhancing our sense of immersion into this enchanting world. This digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate every intricate detail without distraction. It is part of Walter Thornbury's renowned work "Old and New London" which sought to capture authentic glimpses of England's capital city throughout history. With its rich historical context and artistic beauty, this print from Bridgeman Images serves as both an educational tool for understanding Southwark's past and a stunning piece of art that will captivate any viewer.
