View in Jesmond, c. 1845 - A Glimpse into Newcastle's Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to the idyllic countryside of Jesmond in 1845, a time when this now bustling area was still untouched by urban development. Painted with meticulous detail on canvas by Elizabeth Burdon Sanderson, this artwork offers a charming snapshot of rural England during the Victorian era. In the distance, we catch sight of St. Nicholas Church's tower adorned with its distinctive corner spires, which would later become part of Newcastle's iconic cathedral after its consecration in 1882. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this picturesque landscape and infuses it with her own unique style influenced by renowned North East painter John Wilson Carmichael. Elizabeth Burdon-Sanderson hailed from a wealthy family in Newcastle and used her talent to immortalize scenes like these that were rapidly disappearing due to industrialization. This particular piece showcases not only her artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to the changing face of England during that period. As we gaze upon this enchanting painting, we are transported back in time - immersed in an English countryside dotted with rustic buildings and figures going about their daily lives along winding roads. It is through artworks like "View in Jesmond" that we can appreciate both the beauty of nature and gain insight into our rich cultural heritage.
