EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating title page of "London" by Gustave Dore and Blanchard Jerrold, engraved by Stephane Pannemaker in 1872, transports us to the heart of the bustling city. This exquisite engraving, now part of a private collection, showcases Dore's remarkable talent for capturing intricate details and Pannemaker's masterful skill in bringing their vision to life. In this enchanting print, we are greeted by the majestic figure of Old Father Thames himself, personifying the iconic river that flows through London. With his flowing beard and regal presence, he symbolizes the enduring spirit and history of this great metropolis. Surrounding him is a rich tapestry of allegorical figures representing various aspects of London's character. The lion stands proudly as a symbol of strength and courage while an allegorical figure embodies the city itself - vibrant, diverse, and ever-evolving.

The composition exudes grandeur and invites viewers on a journey through time into one of Europe's most iconic cities.
