EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph titled "Section through Suburban House" offers a fascinating glimpse into the architecture and construction of a 20th-century English suburban home. The print showcases various elements that make up the house, from its sturdy steel roof to the intricate brickwork of its walls. The image reveals an array of materials used in constructing this suburban dwelling, including asphalt, cement, wood, and concrete. Each component serves a purpose - from the curved skirting boards to the flat flooring and sloping parapet roofs. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect, such as the lead pipes for rainwater drainage and ventilating tubular sinks. One can also observe how different rooms are partitioned within the house using plaster walls and lintels. The print highlights essential features like fireproof doors and fanlights for added safety measures. The artist's meticulous rendering allows us to appreciate not only the architectural aspects but also provides insight into meteorology with references to rain showers and droplets on windows. This inclusion adds a touch of realism to an otherwise technical illustration. Overall, this lithograph captures both the beauty and functionality of suburban housing design during this period. It serves as a valuable historical document showcasing advancements in building techniques while offering inspiration for future architects and homeowners alike.
