EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Old Palace Yard from the south" takes us back in time to 19th century London. The image showcases the architectural marvels of Westminster Palace, also known as the Houses of Parliament, situated in Old Palace Yard. The artist, belonging to the English School, has beautifully captured this iconic landmark from a unique perspective. The grandeur and intricate details of Westminster Palace are brought to life through this print. One can admire the imposing Gothic-style architecture with its towering spires and ornate decorations. The historic significance of this location is palpable as we imagine the countless political debates and momentous decisions that have taken place within these walls. The composition offers a glimpse into daily life during that era, with figures scattered around Old Palace Yard going about their business. It provides a sense of scale and context against which we can appreciate the magnificence of Westminster Palace even more. This particular engraving is part of a private collection and was based on an original drawing owned by Thomas Allen at that time. Its inclusion in Look and Learn / Peter Jackson Collection speaks volumes about its artistic merit. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness London's rich history unfold before our eyes – an exquisite reminder of how architecture can stand as a testament to human ingenuity throughout centuries gone by.
