EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London. The shop front of Brown and Crow, sacking manufacturers, located at 32 Mark Lane in the City of London, is beautifully captured in this engraving by Samuel Rawle. The image showcases not only the detailed elevation of the shop front but also provides a glimpse into daily life on Mark Lane. Adjacent to Brown and Crow's premises stands the impressive New Corn and Seed Exchange, a hub for commodity trading during that era. Figures are seen gathered at its entrance, perhaps engaged in lively discussions or striking important deals. As we immerse ourselves in this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that Mark Lane was a vibrant center of commerce and finance. People from all walks of life can be spotted strolling along this busy road - businessmen hurrying to their next appointment, shoppers exploring various shops lining the street. Rawle's monochrome masterpiece offers us a window into an English cityscape where trade thrived amidst architectural grandeur. This photograph is part of Guildhall Library and Art Gallery's collection, preserving moments like these for future generations to appreciate Britain's rich heritage.
