EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Bell Inn, Edgware Road, London, 1788" takes us back to the bustling streets of 18th century England. Created by CA Prestel, this aquatint artwork showcases a charming view of the Bell Inn on Edgware Road. The focal point of the image is a horse-drawn carriage gracefully positioned in the foreground. As we delve into this monochrome scene, we are transported to a time when road transport was dominated by these majestic equine-powered vehicles. The Bell Inn stands proudly amidst other buildings along the avenue, its inn sign swinging gently in the breeze. This establishment served as a popular pub and tavern for locals and travelers alike. The artist's attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only the architectural beauty of this historic building but also provides insight into daily life during that era. Located in Paddington within the City of Westminster, this inn played an integral role in serving both residents and those passing through. Preserved by Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this print offers us a glimpse into London's service industry at that time - where transportation and hospitality intersected seamlessly. It serves as a testament to John Rathbone's dedication to capturing significant locations throughout his career. With its timeless charm captured in shades of black and white, this print invites viewers to step back in time and imagine themselves strolling down Edgware Road centuries ago while witnessing history unfold before their eyes.
