EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Street Scene, Newcastle upon Tyne" captures a poignant moment in the 19th century. In this scene, people living on the streets of Newcastle gather around a brazier to keep warm amidst the harsh winter conditions. The bodycolour on paper technique brings out the details and emotions of this artwork. The backdrop reveals one of the arches supporting the railway approach to the iconic High Level Bridge, constructed in 1849. All Saints Church stands tall in the distance, adding a sense of serenity to an otherwise challenging environment. The rising full moon illuminates the night sky with Castor and Pollux shining brightly above, indicating that it is mid-winter. It is believed that this piece was created by a local amateur painter who sought to capture both the beauty and struggles of everyday life. The flames from the brazier provide warmth not only physically but also symbolically, representing hope amidst poverty and homelessness. As you gaze at this image, you are transported back in time to witness an evening street scene bathed in moonlight. This artwork serves as a reminder of resilience and community spirit even during difficult times.
