EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Long Threed Laces Long & Strong, Cries of London, c1688" takes us back to the bustling streets of 17th century England. The image showcases two sellers of laces, their wares elegantly tied to long poles. This advertising technique was commonly used during that era to attract customers. The anonymous photographer skillfully captures the essence of street life in this etching. The men are dressed in traditional attire, wearing hats that add a touch of character to their appearance. Their job as lace sellers is evident from the way they proudly display their merchandise. Marcellus Laroon I, also known as Old Laroon, is believed to be the artist behind this remarkable piece. His attention to detail brings out the intricate fashion accessories and clothing worn by these men. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear the cries echoing through the streets as these street traders try to capture potential buyers' attention. It serves as a reminder of how occupations have evolved over centuries but still retain some elements from our past. Displayed at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery in London, United Kingdom, this print offers a glimpse into an era long gone yet forever preserved through art. Let it transport you back in time and immerse yourself in the vibrant history captured within its monochrome frame.
