EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by the talented artist Frederick Napoleon Shepherd in c1840, transports us back to Islington Green in London during the 19th century. The focal point of this picturesque scene is the charming Old Fox Inn, proudly standing on the corner of Islington Green. Its historic facade exudes character and invites passersby to step inside for a refreshing drink. In the foreground, we catch a glimpse of daily life as a figure skillfully drives a flock of sheep along the bustling streets. This delightful touch adds an authentic touch to this vibrant snapshot from history. Shepherd's expert use of color brings this scene to life, showcasing England's architectural beauty against a backdrop of blue skies and lush greenery. It is evident that his watercolour technique perfectly captures both the exterior charm and inviting atmosphere that made Islington Green such a beloved destination during that era. Preserved within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this remarkable piece offers viewers an enchanting window into London's past. As we admire Shepherd's artistry, let us appreciate how it immortalizes not only iconic buildings but also everyday scenes like shepherds guiding their flocks through city streets – reminding us of our rich cultural heritage and connection with nature.
