EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Leicester Illustrated (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling streets of Leicester. The image showcases various iconic landmarks that defined the city's architectural heritage. In the foreground, we see the remnants of Old Jewry Wall, standing tall as a testament to Leicester's rich history. Beyond it lies an enchanting market scene, with vendors setting up their stalls and locals going about their daily routines. The vibrant atmosphere is palpable as people engage in animated conversations amidst a backdrop of charming old buildings. The eye is then drawn towards Castle Yard, where Leicester Castle once stood proudly. Its grandeur has long faded but its significance remains intact within this snapshot of time. Further along, we catch sight of Street Scenes that exude an undeniable charm unique to this era. Notably featured are two prominent structures - the Old Town Hall and Latimer's House - both exemplifying exquisite architecture that adds character to this picturesque town. These buildings serve as reminders of Leicester's past glory while seamlessly blending with the surrounding urban landscape. As afternoon light bathes Market Place in a warm glow, one cannot help but be transported back in time through this evocative engraving captured for The Graphic newspaper on May 27th, 1882. This historic print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate and celebrate Leicester's cultural heritage while igniting our imagination about life in bygone eras
