EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The turnstile of Waterloo Bridge" takes us back in time to 19th century London. The image captures the hustle and bustle of a late-night scene at one of the city's iconic toll bridges. As the clock strikes two in the morning, people from all walks of life pass through the turnstile, creating a mesmerizing spectacle. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every figure is meticulously etched, showcasing their distinctive clothing styles and expressions. Horse-drawn carriages add an element of nostalgia as they navigate across the bridge, transporting both goods and passengers. Published in Twice Round the Clock, this print offers a glimpse into London's vibrant transportation system during that era. The bridge itself stands tall and sturdy against the backdrop of a moonlit sky, symbolizing its significance as a vital link between different parts of the city. "The turnstile of Waterloo Bridge" not only serves as an exquisite piece of art but also invites us to ponder upon how our ancestors moved around this bustling metropolis centuries ago. It reminds us that while times may have changed drastically since then, some elements like bridges continue to connect people physically and metaphorically throughout history. This print by Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill behind it and its historical value in documenting London's past.
