EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "LONDON: STREET LAMP, 1870" takes us back in time to the enchanting streets of Victorian London. The lamp, situated on the Thames Embankment, stands tall and proud against the backdrop of the bustling city. Its ornate design showcases intricate decorative details that were characteristic of late Victorian craftsmanship. The wood engraving technique used to create this print adds a touch of nostalgia and authenticity to the image. It beautifully captures every fine line and curve, highlighting the lamp's elegance and grandeur. The English typeface accompanying the engraving further immerses us in this bygone era. As we gaze at this remarkable piece, our eyes are drawn to a charming marine motif - a dolphin gracefully adorning its base. This subtle yet delightful addition adds an element of whimsy amidst its otherwise sophisticated appearance. The lamp itself is reminiscent of gas-powered street lamps commonly found during that period. It serves as a reminder of how technology has evolved over time while also preserving elements from our past. Overall, this print from The Granger Collection transports us back to 1870s London with its attention to detail and historical significance. It allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the rich history embedded within each architectural masterpiece that graced these iconic streets long ago.
