EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 19th century, offering a glimpse into the vibrant history of Cupers Gardens in Lambeth, London. Painted by the talented artist Charles Tomkins, this artwork showcases an intriguing juxtaposition between two significant landmarks: Cupers Pleasure Gardens and Beaufoys Vinegar Works. The image depicts a bustling scene with various buildings and structures scattered across the landscape. In the foreground, we see barrels upon barrels stacked outside Beaufoys Vinegar Works, which had taken over the former site of Cupers Pleasure Gardens. Established in 1801 on South Lambeth Road, these vinegar works played a crucial role in trade and manufacturing during that era. Cupers Pleasure Gardens itself held immense historical significance as it operated from around 1690 to 1760. Located just south of what would become Waterloo Bridge, it was a popular destination for entertainment and leisure activities for nearly seven decades before being repurposed for bridge construction. With its vivid colors and meticulous attention to detail, Tomkins' watercolor painting transports us back in time to witness this unique transformation of space through art. Preserved at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this print serves as a valuable testament to London's ever-evolving urban landscape throughout history.
