EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, created in 1890, offers a glimpse into the rich history of London's River Thames. The print, which measures 21 x 15 inches, showcases a series of scenes from Gravesend to Rotherhithe, providing a detailed and intriguing account of life along the river during that era. Starting at the top right, we find ourselves in Rotherhithe, where the Angel Inn stands proudly. This historic pub, which still exists today, was a popular destination for sailors and merchants in the late 19th century. Moving clockwise, we come across Old Limehouse, a district known for its bustling docks and thriving maritime industry. Further down the river, we reach Greenwich, home to the Royal Observatory and the iconic Cutty Sark. The engraving captures the essence of this historic area, with its grand buildings and bustling waterfront. The image of Rotherhithe also includes fire floats, which were used to extinguish fires on ships. These vital vessels were a common sight along the Thames, ensuring the safety of the numerous ships that plied their trade on the river. The final scene in this print shows a sailing barge off Gravesend. The intricate details of the barge, with its sails billowing in the wind, offer a glimpse into the importance of maritime trade during this period. This engraving, with its intricate details and historical significance, is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of London and the River Thames. It provides a fascinating insight into the past, allowing us to appreciate the rich tapestry of history that surrounds us.
