EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling Inn Yard of the Talbot Inn in Southwark, London, circa 1810. Created by George Sidney Shepherd, this detailed pencil sketch captures the essence of a bygone era. The Talbot Inn, also known as The Tabard, holds great historical significance as it was famously mentioned in Geoffrey Chaucer's renowned literary work, The Canterbury Tales. Established in 1307 and located on Borough High Street, this inn served as a popular hostelry for weary travelers and pilgrims embarking on their journeys. Despite being destroyed by fire in 1669, The Talbot was immediately rebuilt and continued to thrive until its eventual demolition in 1873. In this image, we see a courtyard filled with coaches and stagewagons ready to transport passengers near and far. Resting barrels suggest that both locals seeking refreshment at the pub and visitors taking respite from their travels frequented this lively establishment. Shepherd's meticulous attention to detail brings the architecture of this coaching inn to life. This preparatory sketch showcases his skillful line drawing technique while capturing the charm of an exterior that witnessed countless stories unfold within its walls. As we gaze upon this evocative scene frozen in time, we are transported back centuries ago when travel was arduous yet filled with adventure. It serves as a reminder of how places like The Talbot Inn played an integral role not only as resting spots but also as meeting points
