EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph takes us back to the bustling streets of Hyde Park Corner in Westminster, London, circa 1860. The artist skillfully captures the grandeur of the Wellington Arch as it stands proudly against the backdrop of St Georges Hospital and Knightsbridge. In this snapshot of history, we witness a vibrant cityscape teeming with life. Carriages traverse the busy roads, their horse-drawn vehicles adding an air of elegance to the scene. Men on horseback ride confidently through the avenue, perhaps paying homage to Arthur Wellesley, famously known as the Duke of Wellington. The monument dedicated to this esteemed military general is prominently featured in this print - a fitting tribute to his contributions to Britain and its people. The equestrian statue serves as a reminder of his leadership during times of war and peace. As we delve into this image further, we are transported back in time; our senses can almost feel the energy emanating from Hyde Park Corner. This lithograph not only showcases architectural features but also offers glimpses into everyday life during that era. Preserved by Guildhall Library and Art Gallery for generations to come, this piece allows us to appreciate both historical significance and artistic prowess. It invites us on a journey through time while reminding us that even amidst progress and change, there will always be tributes paid to those who have shaped our world before us.
