EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Old House, 52 Wine Street, 1821" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Bristol in the early 19th century. Created by James Johnson, this pencil and wash drawing beautifully captures the essence of a bygone era. The image showcases the south side of Wine Street, a vibrant city street lined with charming shops and houses. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every architectural element is meticulously rendered on paper. The lightly colored tones add a touch of warmth and nostalgia to the scene. It is worth noting that this artwork is actually a copy made by Johnson after an artist named Delamotte. Nevertheless, it still holds immense historical value as it provides us with a glimpse into life during that period. Displayed at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK, this piece was bequeathed by William Jerdone Braikenridge in 1908. Its presence within their collection allows visitors to appreciate not only its artistic merit but also its significance as part of Bristol's cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this remarkable drawing, we are transported back to a time when horse-drawn carriages roamed these very streets and people went about their daily lives amidst these historic buildings. It serves as a reminder of how much our cities have evolved over time while preserving fragments of our past for generations to come.
