EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Strawberries (coloured engraving)" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London. The image showcases a vibrant scene from the Cries of London series, featuring an exquisite mezzotint by Thomas Appleton in 1907. In this lively depiction, we see a city filled with various activities and trades. A beautifully adorned sedan chair stands prominently on the cobblestone street, symbolizing luxury and commerce. Nearby, people engage in their daily routines while horses gracefully trot along. The focal point of the artwork is undoubtedly the strawberries - plump and luscious fruits that evoke a sense of indulgence. These delectable treats are being sold by a vendor who passionately cries out his wares to attract customers. The vivid colors used in this coloured engraving bring life to each strawberry, making them almost irresistible. Amidst all the urban chaos, one can't help but notice the fine furnishings adorning some buildings nearby. Single chairs upholstered with elegance add a touch of sophistication to this busy scene. Overall, this print captures not only the essence of London's historical charm but also highlights its diverse array of activities and trades. It serves as a delightful reminder that even amidst bustling city life, nature's bounties like strawberries continue to captivate our senses and bring joy into our lives.
