EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph transports us back to the bustling streets of 19th century Southwark, London. The print showcases Newington Turnpike, a vital thoroughfare connecting travelers to various destinations within the city. The anonymous artist skillfully captures the vibrant energy of this avenue, lined with an array of buildings that reflect the architectural styles of the time. The scene is bathed in color, bringing life to every detail - from the grand structures towering above to the humble lane stretching into the distance. This snapshot in time offers a glimpse into daily life during this era: horse-drawn carriages traverse the road while pedestrians navigate their way through bustling crowds. Newington Causeway emerges as a central focal point, its significance underscored by its name proudly displayed on a barrier. This causeway served as both a transportation hub and toll collection point for those venturing further along their journeys. As we explore this historic image, it becomes clear that Newington Turnpike was not merely a means of travel but also an embodiment of progress and connectivity. It symbolizes England's evolving landscape and serves as a testament to London's enduring status as an epicenter of commerce and culture. Today, thanks to preservation efforts by Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, we can marvel at this lithograph and appreciate how much has changed since c1830 while still recognizing echoes of our past embedded within our present-day streetscapes.
