EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the bustling cityscape of London in the 18th century. The iconic London Bridge takes center stage, proudly standing tall before its alteration in 1757. Captured by Samuel Scott, a renowned English artist of his time, this image showcases the bridge's original design with intricate arches and towering structures. The scene is alive with activity as we see a Thames river boat gracefully gliding beneath the bridge. Its presence adds a sense of movement and vitality to an otherwise still moment frozen in history. The boat serves as a reminder of the vital role that the River Thames played in connecting different parts of London during this era. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from Fishmongers Hall, located on the banks of the Thames itself, we can't help but marvel at how much has changed since then. This snapshot captures not only architectural details but also offers us glimpses into daily life along the riverbank - perhaps merchants haggling over goods or families enjoying leisurely strolls. London Bridge before its alteration stands as a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. It invites us to reflect on how cities evolve over time while cherishing their rich heritage. This print is truly an exquisite window into London's past, offering viewers an opportunity to connect with history through art.
