EDITORS COMMENTS
The Royal Exchange and the Bank of England stand tall in this stunning lithograph by T. Picken, printed by Day & Son in 1851. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the bustling cityscape of London during the Victorian era. In the foreground, a majestic carriage drawn by powerful horses captures our attention. The elegant design and meticulous craftsmanship showcase the opulence of this era. These magnificent animals, symbols of power and strength, add an element of liveliness to the scene. The Royal Exchange, with its iconic dome and grand architecture, dominates the background. This historic building served as a hub for commerce and trade since its establishment in 1565. It represents London's status as a global financial center throughout history. Adjacent to it stands the Bank of England, another symbol of economic might that has played a crucial role in shaping Britain's financial landscape for centuries. Its imposing facade exudes authority and stability. This lithograph is not just a visual masterpiece; it also serves as a historical document capturing an important moment in time. Published by Rudolph Ackerman, it showcases George Sidney Shepherd's exceptional talent for recreating urban landscapes with remarkable accuracy. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back to 19th-century London—a city teeming with energy and ambition—where tradition met progress at every corner.
