EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative sketch captures the charm and history of the George PH, Holborn (Old), London, a beloved public house that once stood in the heart of the city. The intricate details of the building's facade are brought to life through the skilled hand of the artist, with its ornate brickwork, ornate sign, and ornate windows. The pub, which was located at WC2B 5DG, was a long-standing institution in the Hoare and Company Limited's portfolio, although it is important to note that this sketch is not of the company itself, but rather the building that housed the pub. The George, which is no longer in existence as of July 2018, was a popular gathering place for locals and visitors alike. The pub's rich history can be seen in the sketch, with its aged bricks and worn sign, which tell the story of the countless pints pulled and conversations had within its walls. The replacement pub has since been demolished, making this sketch an even more valuable reminder of a bygone era. The sketch offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a place where community and camaraderie were at the heart of the experience. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the history of our cities, one building at a time. Whether you're a history buff, a London enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of a well-drawn sketch, this print is sure to be a treasured addition to any collection.
