EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view, dated 1730, offers a rare glimpse into the past, showcasing Red Lion Square in Holborn, London during the early 18th century. The image reveals a scene of striking contrasts, as the bustling heart of the city, with its buildings and roads, is juxtaposed against the expanses of lush green fields and rural landscapes in the near distance. The village of Holborn, then a thriving community, is centered around the square, with its red brick buildings and winding streets. The square, named after the Red Lion Inn, a popular gathering place for travelers and locals alike, is surrounded by trees that provide a sense of tranquility amidst the urban setting. Looking beyond the square, the villages of Hampstead, Highgate, and Islington can be seen on the horizon. These communities, nestled in the rolling hills and verdant landscapes, were still largely agricultural at this time, with farming and agriculture playing a significant role in their economies. The presence of fields and rural landscapes in such close proximity to the city speaks to the interconnectedness of urban and rural life during this period. The image also underscores the rich history and evolution of London, as it transitioned from a primarily agricultural hub to a global metropolis. This aerial view, with its breathtaking perspective and historical significance, is a testament to the beauty and complexity of London and England during the 1730s. It invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of this bygone era, and to appreciate the enduring allure of this remarkable city and its surroundings.
