EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of Albion House and the entrance to the Princess Theatre, located on Oxford Street in Westminster, London. Taken around 1840, this image captures a moment frozen in time from the 19th century. Albion House stands tall with its remarkable architecture, representing the essence of British design during that era. The vibrant colors bring life to this historical landmark, reminding us of its significance within the cityscape. The lampposts lining the avenue illuminate the street and add an enchanting touch to this bustling scene. The presence of people outside Albion House and along Oxford Street adds a sense of liveliness to this snapshot. It allows us to imagine what it must have been like for those strolling through this busy part of town during that period. James Findlay's watercolour technique beautifully captures every detail, making it feel as though we are transported back in time. This piece is now preserved at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, serving as a testament to London's rich history. As we gaze upon this photograph print today, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also recognize how it serves as a window into our past – offering glimpses into a bygone era when Albion House and Princess Theatre were at their prime.
