EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Newcastle upon Tyne" takes us back to the bustling streets of this historic city in 1887. The illustration, originally featured in The Illustrated London News on July 16th, provides a panoramic view that showcases the architectural beauty and industrial might of Newcastle-upon-Tyne. The image captures the essence of a thriving city built along the banks of the River Tyne. A swing bridge gracefully spans across the waterway, connecting Newcastle with its neighboring town Gateshead. This engineering marvel symbolizes progress and innovation during the Industrial Revolution. The quayside is teeming with activity as ships docked along it testify to Newcastle's importance as a major trading hub. Boats dotting the river add an element of movement to this static depiction, reminding us that commerce was at its peak during this era. Thomas Sulman skillfully portrays both grandeur and grittiness in his artwork. The intricate details showcase various architectural styles prevalent at that time while also highlighting smokestacks billowing out plumes of smoke from factories – a testament to Tyneside's booming industry. This historical print not only offers an insight into life in late 19th-century Newcastle but also serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time. It invites viewers to appreciate their own urban surroundings by comparing them to this snapshot from another era.
