EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of London - "The Improvement of London, the Opening up of the Mall". The engraving, created by Henry William Brewer, showcases an aerial view of Charing Cross and its surroundings. Dated back to 1896, this illustration was originally published in The Graphic magazine. It depicts a transformative period for London as it underwent extensive architectural changes under the guidance of the London County Councils Hall. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the grand Mall that stretches out before us. Lined with majestic buildings on either side, it serves as a testament to both progress and elegance. Its wide expanse invites pedestrians to stroll leisurely while admiring their surroundings. One cannot help but marvel at how Brewer's work beautifully captures not only the physical transformation but also conveys an economical suggestion for improvement within this bustling cityscape. As we gaze upon this historical gem from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how urban planning can shape a city's identity. This print stands as a reminder that even amidst constant change, there will always be room for growth and development in our beloved capital - London.
