EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph, titled "Nell Gwyn's Lodging, Drury Lane, February 1881" transports us back to a bygone era in London. Created by the talented artist Philip Norman in 1880, this print captures the essence of a building that no longer exists. The image showcases Nell Gwyn's lodging on Drury Lane before its demolition in February 1881. The intricate architectural details and old-world charm are evident in every brushstroke. This historic structure was once home to Nell Gwyn, an iconic figure from British history known for her wit and beauty. Norman's illustration is part of his larger work called "London Vanished and Vanishing" published by A&C Black in 1905. Through his artistry, he sought to document the disappearing landmarks of London as modernization swept through the city. As we gaze upon this lithograph today, we cannot help but feel a sense of nostalgia for what has been lost over time. The demolished building serves as a poignant reminder of how quickly things can change and vanish from our urban landscapes. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we have the privilege of preserving this piece of history forever. Let it serve as a testament to both Nell Gwyn's legacy and the ever-evolving nature of architecture in one of the world's most vibrant cities: London.
