EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the bustling streets of Weymouth, Dorset in the 19th century. The focal point of this image is the magnificent New Market-House, standing proudly amidst a vibrant market scene. Its grand architecture and intricate details are beautifully captured by the English School artist who created this print. The New Market-House, with its imposing presence, serves as a hub for commerce and community gatherings. It symbolizes the economic prosperity and social cohesion that characterized Weymouth during this period. The surrounding market stalls teem with activity as locals engage in lively exchanges of goods and conversation. The artist's attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in every aspect of this scene - from the intricately carved pillars supporting the structure to the colorful awnings adorning each stall. The hustle and bustle of everyday life are palpable; one can almost hear the sounds of vendors hawking their wares and shoppers bartering for deals. This print originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on December 29,1855, offering readers a glimpse into daily life in Weymouth at that time. Today, it serves as a valuable historical document, preserving not only architectural beauty but also providing insight into an era long gone. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this piece from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection so that we may continue to appreciate its artistic value and historical significance for generations to come.
