EDITORS COMMENTS
Manchester: In Alexandra Park (colour litho) captures the vibrant essence of a bustling industrial city in early 20th century England. The print, part of a private collection, showcases the remarkable talent of the English School artists Arnold Linden Radcliffe and L G McKibbin. Commissioned for the publication 'Manchester. . . heart of the Industrial North, ' with an introduction by J B Priestley, this illustration beautifully depicts Alexandra Park as a haven amidst Manchester's thriving industries. The watercolour sketches bring to life the park's serene landscapes and its significance as a civic playground for leisure and recreation. The use of colour lithography adds depth and richness to this artwork, highlighting both the vivid hues found within nature and those associated with Manchester's industrial prowess. It serves as a reminder that even within an urban landscape dominated by factories and machinery, pockets of beauty can be found. This print is not just a visual representation but also holds historical importance as it reflects upon Manchester's role as an economic powerhouse during that era. It symbolizes how industry coexisted harmoniously with public spaces like Alexandra Park, providing much-needed respite for its hardworking citizens. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece from our past, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic merit and its cultural significance in shaping Manchester's identity.
