EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the bustling streets of London in 1852. The image showcases an old house known as the Half Moon Tavern, located on the West side of Aldersgate Street. With its charming Victorian architecture, this historic building stands tall amidst a vibrant street scene. Pedestrians can be seen strolling along the pavement, going about their daily lives. Shops with inviting shop fronts line the street, adding to the lively atmosphere. The facade of the Half Moon Tavern exudes character and charm, hinting at countless stories that have unfolded within its walls over time. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are reminded of a bygone era when inns like these were central gathering places for locals and travelers alike. The Half Moon Tavern would have been a hub of activity - a place where people gathered to share tales and enjoy good company. The artist Thomas Hosmer Shepherd has masterfully captured this slice of life from 19th century London. Through his skillful use of watercolor on paper, he brings forth intricate details that transport us into this enchanting world. This print is not just an exquisite piece of art; it is also a window into our past, allowing us to glimpse into everyday life during Victorian times. It serves as a reminder that even though centuries may pass, certain aspects of human existence remain timeless – such as our need for community spaces like pubs and taverns where stories are shared and memories are made.
