EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic east side of Soho Square in London. The focal point is number 32, a distinguished building on the right that once served as the residence of Sir Joseph Banks and marked the birthplace of the African Association. Painted by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd, a renowned artist from the 19th century, this watercolour masterpiece showcases his exceptional talent for capturing cityscapes. The scene comes alive with its bustling atmosphere: a horse-drawn cart traverses along the cobbled streets while people go about their daily activities. The old buildings surrounding number 32 add to the charm and character of this landmark location. In this snapshot of history, one can almost hear the sounds of piano forte makers at work and catch glimpses of fashionable individuals strolling through Soho Square. This image transports us back to an era when London was teeming with life and cultural significance. It serves as a visual testament to both Sir Joseph Banks' influential role in exploration and discovery, as well as Shepherd's ability to immortalize moments in time through his artistry. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of how our world has evolved over centuries but still retains echoes of its past glory.
