EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "The Ferry, River Thames, London" takes us back in time to the bustling city of London in the 19th century. The print showcases a picturesque scene on the iconic River Thames, capturing the essence of daily life during that era. In this artwork, we witness a lively riverbank filled with activity. A ferryboat is seen gracefully gliding across the water, transporting passengers from one side of the river to another. The rowing boats surrounding it add an element of charm and authenticity to this historic moment frozen in time. As our gaze wanders further into the image, we notice people dressed in fashionable clothing of their time eagerly awaiting their turn to board the ferry. Their attire reflects both elegance and practicality as they navigate through their daily routines along this vital waterway. The presence of a tugboat hints at the evolving transportation methods during that period. It serves as a reminder that progress was underway even amidst these timeless scenes captured by English School artists. This remarkable engraving offers us not only a glimpse into London's past but also invites us to reflect on how much has changed over centuries while marveling at how some aspects remain remarkably familiar. With its meticulous details and vibrant colours, this print truly brings history alive for all who have an appreciation for art and nostalgia alike.
