EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Thames Embankment showing the Steam Boat Landing Pier at Westminster Bridge" takes us back to 1864, capturing a moment in history. Engraved by Day and Son, this color lithograph showcases the remarkable work of Robert Kent Thomas. The image is housed in the London Metropolitan Archives, City of London. The scene depicted is one of grandeur and significance. Designed by Sir Joseph William Bazalgette, the Thames Embankment stands proudly along the riverbank. In the foreground, we see a bustling steamboat landing pier at Westminster Bridge. Passengers eagerly embark or disembark from these magnificent vessels as they navigate through London's iconic waterway. In the background, towering above everything else, are two architectural marvels that define London's skyline: The Houses of Parliament with its famous clock tower known as Big Ben and Westminster Abbey. These landmarks have stood for centuries as symbols of British history and democracy. The artist skillfully captures both the majesty of these structures and their harmonious integration into their natural surroundings along the Thames River. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring life to every detail - from the rippling waves on the river to each intricate architectural feature. As we gaze upon this print today, we can't help but be transported back in time to witness firsthand an era long gone but forever preserved through artistry and craftsmanship.
