EDITORS COMMENTS
The Weigh House, Cumberland Market: A Glimpse into Pre-War London". This print showcases "The Weigh House, Cumberland Market" painted by Robert Polhill Bevan in 1914. The oil on canvas painting, measuring 51.1x61.3 cm, is housed at the Yale Center for British Art as part of the esteemed Paul Mellon Collection. Transporting us back to a quieter time in history, this artwork captures the essence of a 19th-century hay and straw market located just north of Regents Park in London. The scene depicts a picturesque street lined with charming architecture and bustling activity from horse-drawn hansom cabs and carts. Despite being devoid of people in this particular moment frozen in time, one can almost hear the distant clip-clop of hooves on cobblestones and imagine conversations echoing through these streets once filled with life. A lone street sweeper diligently goes about his task while an air of tranquility envelops the surroundings. This image offers a glimpse into pre-war London when life moved at a slower pace compared to today's bustling metropolis. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bevan's brushstrokes, it serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical document that allows us to reflect upon our ever-evolving urban landscapes while appreciating the beauty found within everyday scenes like "The Weigh House.
