EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1840, offering a glimpse into the residence of John Hoole in Great Queen Street, Lincolns Inn Fields, London. The talented artist C J Smith skillfully captures the exterior of this magnificent building, showcasing its grandeur and elegance. John Hoole, known for his translation work on Ariosto's epic poem "Orlando Furioso" resided in this splendid home during the late 18th century. The image is part of Charles John Smith's collection titled "Historical and Literary Curiosities" which features facsimiles of original documents from that era. The photograph presents an enchanting landscape with a picturesque road leading up to the entrance of Hoole's residence. Surrounding buildings add to the charm of this city scene, while a tranquil lane nearby invites exploration. In monochrome tones that evoke nostalgia for times gone by, this print offers a window into 19th-century London life. It transports us back to an era when elegant homes like John Hoole's were prominent landmarks within bustling neighborhoods. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but imagine the literary conversations that may have taken place within those walls or envision Ludovico Ariosto himself visiting his translator in such esteemed surroundings. This print serves as a testament to both historical significance and architectural beauty—a true treasure preserved by C J Smith and now shared with us through Heritage Images.
