EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Smithfield Market from the Barrs" takes us back to the bustling streets of London in the early 19th century. Created by Thomas Barber around 1830 and based on a painting by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd, this print offers a vivid snapshot of daily life in Smithfield Market. The scene is filled with energy as traders and salesmen engage in lively commerce. The market's architectural beauty is showcased prominently, with St. Paul's Cathedral's majestic dome towering over the cityscape. The Georgian-style buildings add an air of elegance to the street scene, contrasting with the raw nature of trade taking place below. Cattle and cows can be seen being bought and sold within pens, emphasizing Smithfield Market's importance as a hub for livestock trading during that era. This image captures both the economic significance of trade at that time and its impact on shaping London as a thriving metropolis. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how commerce shaped urban landscapes like Smithfield Market. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and provides insight into how our ancestors conducted business centuries ago.
