EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the enchanting streets of Old Islington and Clerkenwell. The intricate engraving, created by Herbert Railton in 1884, beautifully captures the essence of this historical neighborhood. As we gaze upon the image, we are transported to a world where horse-drawn carriages trot along cobblestone streets and gas lamps cast a warm glow on the buildings. The south front staircase of Canonbury Tower stands proudly, its architectural details telling tales of centuries past. Nearby, the Banqueting Hall exudes grandeur with its imposing presence. Our eyes wander further into the frame, drawn towards the Old Angel Inn yard. Here lies Samuel Johnson's room - a place that once hosted lively discussions among intellectuals and writers during London's literary heyday. St John's Gate looms majestically in the background, reminding us of its historical significance as an entrance to Clerkenwell Priory. This photograph is not just a mere depiction of buildings; it encapsulates an entire era filled with rich history and cultural heritage. It allows us to imagine what life was like for those who walked these very streets centuries ago. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' meticulous preservation efforts, this remarkable piece can now be admired by all who appreciate art and history alike. Let this print serve as a reminder that even though time may pass and landscapes change, there will always be glimpses into our past waiting to be discovered through artful lenses like this one from Fine Art
