EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Fetter Lane in London, circa 1870. The talented artist JT Wilson skillfully captures the essence of this vibrant city scene. In the foreground, we see a horse-drawn cart making its way down the cobbled street, adding a touch of nostalgia to the image. The focal point of this artwork is undoubtedly the White Horse Inn, standing proudly on Fetter Lane. Its front view showcases an impressive building with intricate architectural details that reflect the charm and grandeur of 19th-century England. This pub was not only a place for refreshment but also served as a hub for social gatherings and lively conversations among locals and visitors alike. As we delve into this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that Fetter Lane was at the heart of industry and commerce during this era. The presence of figures going about their daily activities hints at a thriving service industry in full swing. Through Wilson's masterful use of color in his watercolor painting, we are transported back in time to witness life on these historic streets firsthand. This remarkable piece now resides within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery where it continues to captivate viewers with its vivid depiction of Fetter Lane's past glory.
