EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in London's history - the City Panic of 1866, also known as Black Friday. The scene depicted in Lombard Street during this tumultuous time showcases the chaos and fear that gripped the city as a result of the Overend Gurney crisis.
The historical significance of this image is undeniable, offering a glimpse into a period of financial instability and uncertainty in Britain. The panic that ensued from the events surrounding Overend Gurney reverberated throughout the streets of London, leaving residents and businesses reeling from the consequences.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from 1866, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the impact of economic crises on everyday life. The hustle and bustle of Lombard Street serves as a stark reminder of how quickly fortunes can change and how fragile our sense of security truly is.
