EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Arch of old London Bridge called Long Entry Lock" takes us back in time to the bustling city of London on October 1st, 1831. The image showcases the architectural marvel that was the old London Bridge, capturing its grandeur and historical significance. The arch stands tall and proud, reflecting its centuries-old history. Its intricate design is a testament to the craftsmanship of Edward William Cooke, who skillfully brought it to life through his engravings. The vibrant colours used in this print add depth and richness to every detail, allowing us to appreciate the bridge's beauty even more. As we gaze upon this scene, we can almost hear the sounds of water gently lapping against the Sterling at low tide. It is as if time has stood still for a moment, giving us a glimpse into an era long gone by. This print serves as a window into London's past – a reminder of how architecture can shape a city's identity and leave an indelible mark on its landscape. It invites us to imagine what life was like during those times when horse-drawn carriages traversed this iconic bridge. Preserved within private collections today, these prints continue to captivate viewers with their historical value and artistic excellence. They offer us an opportunity not only to admire but also to reflect upon our shared heritage and appreciate the rich tapestry of human ingenuity that has shaped our cities throughout history.
