EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Leicester Square in Westminster, London, in the year 1753. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Thomas Bowles, a renowned British engraver of the 18th century. As we gaze upon this monochrome image, we are transported to a bygone era filled with architectural marvels and historical significance. The buildings that line the square stand tall and proud, showcasing the grandeur of English craftsmanship during that time. In the foreground, a carriage passes through the cobbled streets, reminding us of an era when road transport was still in its infancy. Meanwhile, an equestrian statue stands majestically at one corner of Leicester Square, adding a touch of regality to this vibrant cityscape. The Guildhall Library and Art Gallery can be seen in the distance - a place where knowledge meets artistry. It serves as a reminder that even amidst urban chaos, culture thrives. This print captures not just a location but also encapsulates an entire country's history within its frame. It reminds us how much has changed over centuries while preserving our connection to England's rich heritage.
