EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Leather Lane, looking South towards Holborn, 1897" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London over a century ago. The image showcases the remarkable talent of Philip Norman, an artist known for his ability to capture the essence of a rapidly changing city. As we gaze upon this colour lithograph, we are transported to Leather Lane, a once-vibrant area that has since been demolished and lost to history. The old architecture and buildings stand proudly against the backdrop of a vanishing London skyline. Norman's work is not only visually stunning but also historically significant. This particular illustration was created as part of his book "London Vanished and Vanishing" published by A&C Black in 1905. Through his paintings and descriptions, Norman sought to preserve the memory of these disappearing landmarks for future generations. The scene depicted here is filled with nostalgia and melancholy as we witness the inevitable march of progress through demolition. It serves as a poignant reminder that even in our ever-changing world, it is essential to cherish and protect our architectural heritage. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' collaboration with Fine Art Finder, this extraordinary piece can now be appreciated by art enthusiasts worldwide. Let us marvel at this snapshot from another era—a testament to both artistic skill and the impermanence of urban landscapes.
