EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Hart Street, Cripplegate in London, circa 1818. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Robert Blemmell Schnebbelie, known for his incredible attention to detail and ability to capture the essence of a location. In this particular scene, we are treated to a view of Rogers Almshouses which were established on the north side of Hart Street during the early seventeenth century. These almshouses were built as a result of a generous bequest made by Robert Rogers, a leatherseller in 1660. The architectural beauty and historical significance of these buildings shine through in Schnebbelie's watercolour. As our eyes wander through the image, we notice an intriguing figure perched on one of the rooftops. This mysterious presence adds an air of curiosity and invites us to ponder their story within this vibrant cityscape. The vivid colors and intricate details bring life to every corner of this composition. It is evident that Schnebbelie had a deep appreciation for his subject matter as he meticulously captured each element with precision and care. Thanks to Heritage Images' preservation efforts, we can now admire this remarkable piece from centuries past. Let it transport you back in time, allowing your imagination to roam freely along those historic streets while marveling at the enduring spirit of charity that still resonates today.
