EDITORS COMMENTS
Sand O, St Giless Church, London, 1805 captures the bustling streets of 19th century London with its vibrant colors and lively atmosphere. In this copper plate print from Richard Phillips' Modern London; Being the History and Present State of the British Metropolis, we are transported back in time to witness the itinerant traders that once roamed these historic streets. The focus of this particular scene is a sand seller who stands proudly beside his cart filled with shovels and sacks of sand. Dressed in traditional attire and donning a hat, he passionately calls out to passersby, advertising his wares. His cries echo through the air as he showcases his trade amidst the backdrop of St Giless Church. This engraving not only provides us with a glimpse into everyday life during this era but also highlights the importance of religion within society. The towering presence of St Giless Church serves as a reminder that faith played an integral role in people's lives even amidst their daily activities. As we observe this street vendor going about his profession, we cannot help but appreciate the rich history and cultural heritage that lies within each corner of London's streets. This print allows us to connect with our past while marveling at how much has changed over time.
