EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Southwark, London in 1825. The artist, G Yates, skillfully captures the essence of Newington Turnpike on Newington Causeway with meticulous detail and vibrant colors. In this snapshot of history, we are transported to a time when toll gates and turnpikes regulated transportation along the roads. The toll house stands proudly at the entrance, serving as a reminder of the fees paid by travelers passing through. Beyond it lies an avenue lined with charming buildings and chimneys releasing plumes of smoke into the air. The focal point of this scene is undoubtedly the Elephant and Castle Inn, standing tall against a backdrop of blue skies. This iconic pub served as a meeting place for locals and travelers alike, offering respite from their journeys. As we gaze upon this watercolor masterpiece housed in Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, we can't help but marvel at how much has changed since then. Yet amidst all these transformations over two centuries later, some elements still remain: the enduring spirit of British culture captured within these walls. This photograph serves as both a window into our past and a testament to our shared heritage. It reminds us that even though time marches forward relentlessly, there will always be moments frozen in art like this one that allow us to connect with those who came before us.
