EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Steps of New London Bridge, St Magnus, the Monument and part of the Old Bridge" takes us back to 1832 when it was first published. The artist behind this masterpiece is Edward William Cooke (1811-80), whose attention to detail and skillful hand can be seen in every stroke. The image transports us to a bustling scene on the steps of New London Bridge. People are going about their daily lives, some leisurely strolling while others hurry past with purpose. The bridge itself stands tall and majestic in the background, connecting both sides of the city. To the left, we catch a glimpse of St Magnus Cathedral with its towering spire reaching towards the heavens. Its architectural beauty adds an air of grandeur to this already picturesque setting. In contrast, on the right side of the print lies part of the old bridge - a testament to history and tradition that has stood for centuries before being replaced by its newer counterpart. And looming over all these structures is The Monument, a striking column commemorating one of London's most significant historical events. This enchanting engraving captures not only architectural marvels but also provides a window into life during that era. It serves as a reminder that even though time may pass and landscapes change, there will always be remnants from our past worth cherishing.
