EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the bustling energy of Messrs George Hitchcock and Co, a prominent Silk Mercers, Linen Drapers, Haberdashers, and Carpet Manufacturers in 19th century London. The detailed illustration showcases the exterior of their shop located at 72, 73, and 74 St Paul's Churchyard, as well as their additional location at 46 Paternoster Row.
The image offers a glimpse into the vibrant trade scene of Victorian England, with customers bustling in and out of the store front. The intricate details of the architecture and signage provide insight into the craftsmanship and attention to detail that characterized businesses during this era.
As part of H G Clarke's guidebook "London As It Is To-Day" published in 1856, this engraving serves as both a historical record and a visual representation of daily life in London during that time period. It is a testament to the rich history and commercial activity that defined the city as a hub for commerce and industry.
Through this print by Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to experience the sights and sounds of an iconic London establishment that played an integral role in shaping the fabric of society during the 19th century.
