EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "View of Broken Cross, at the end of Thieving Lane, Westminster, London, 1808" takes us back to early 19th century England. The image showcases a bustling city scene filled with architectural marvels and historical significance. In the foreground, we see a woman diligently filling her kettle with water from a nearby source. Her presence adds a touch of everyday life amidst the grandeur surrounding her. Towering above her are magnificent stone buildings that dominate the skyline. Among them is the iconic Westminster Abbey, its majestic towers reaching towards the heavens. The focal point of this print is undoubtedly the broken cross standing proudly at the end of Thieving Lane. This enigmatic structure holds an air of mystery and intrigue as it stands against time's relentless march forward. As our gaze wanders through this visual tapestry, we can't help but be transported to another era - one where horse-drawn carriages traversed these very streets and people went about their daily lives in awe-inspiring surroundings. This artwork not only captures an exquisite moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to British history and architectural brilliance. It reminds us that even within bustling cities like London, there are hidden gems waiting to be discovered by those who take a moment to pause and appreciate their beauty.
