EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "View of Bloomsbury Square, 1787" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London during the Georgian era. The print showcases a picturesque scene, capturing the essence of society and daily life in this vibrant neighborhood. The view extends north across Southampton/Bloomsbury Square towards Bedford House, which was previously known as Southampton House. This grand mansion was originally built for the Earl of Southampton and later became associated with the Duke of Bedford through marriage. The square itself was designed in the 1660s and served as an elegant gathering place for London's elite. In this detailed engraving by Edward Dayes, we see a snapshot of fashionable individuals strolling along cobbled streets adorned with carriages and cattle. A milkmaid gracefully tends to her cows nearby, adding a touch of rustic charm amidst the urban setting. The skillful engravings by Pollard and Jukes bring out every intricate detail, allowing us to appreciate not only the architectural beauty but also the lively atmosphere that permeated Bloomsbury Square during this period. As we gaze upon this historical artwork from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are transported back to a time when horse-drawn carriages traversed these very streets and society flourished within these elegant surroundings. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, art has an incredible power to preserve moments in history for generations to come.
