EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Duke Street, Westminster in 1883. The image captures the view of the entrance to Lincolns Inn Fields, a historic and picturesque location that has stood the test of time. Once known as Duke Street, this vibrant thoroughfare later adopted the name Sardinia Street. The architectural features showcased in this photograph are truly remarkable. An elegant archway frames the entrance, leading our gaze towards a charming avenue lined with stunning buildings from the 19th century. The color palette adds depth and character to this snapshot of British history. As we explore further into this scene, we notice a pillar box standing proudly on one side - a testament to London's efficient postal service during that era. This postbox serves as a reminder of how communication played an essential role in connecting people across cities and countries. John Crowther skillfully captured this moment in time with his watercolor technique, preserving not only the physical landscape but also evoking a sense of nostalgia for England's past. It is through images like these that we can appreciate how architecture shapes our surroundings and provides glimpses into bygone eras. Displayed at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this print invites viewers to step into history and imagine themselves strolling along Duke Street's passageways or exploring Lincolns Inn Fields' enchanting beauty.
