EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "The New Houses of Parliament" takes us back to the year 1852 when Thomas Picken skillfully engraved this iconic image. Published by Lloyd Bros. & Co. , it showcases the grandeur of the newly constructed Houses of Parliament in London. In this print, we are transported to the banks of the River Thames, where a bustling scene unfolds before our eyes. A paddle steamer gracefully glides through the water while rowing boats dot its path. The river serves as a picturesque backdrop for this architectural marvel that dominates the skyline. The attention to detail is remarkable as every spire and intricate facade is meticulously captured by Picken's engraving technique. The towering Big Ben stands proudly amidst its surroundings, symbolizing time itself within these historic walls. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we can almost hear echoes of debate and legislation emanating from within these hallowed halls. This print offers us a glimpse into an era when Lords and Members of Parliament convened to shape British history. Preserved by Bridgeman Images, this extraordinary piece allows us to appreciate both artistry and history simultaneously. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity in creating such magnificent structures that continue to inspire awe even centuries later.
