EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lavender, Temple Bar, from Cries of London" takes us back to the vibrant streets of 19th-century England. Published by Richard Phillips in 1804, this engraving beautifully captures a scene filled with life and color. In the foreground, we see a young flower girl seller standing proudly amidst her fragrant lavender bundles. Her presence adds a touch of innocence and charm to the bustling cityscape behind her. The artist, William Marshall Craig, skillfully portrays every detail of her attire - from the delicate flowers adorning her bonnet to the rustic basket she holds with grace. As our eyes wander beyond the flower girl, we are transported into a world where cries and calls fill the air. The busy street is teeming with people going about their daily lives - merchants selling their wares, pedestrians hurrying along on their errands. The architecture of Temple Bar stands tall in the background as a symbol of London's rich history. This enchanting print not only showcases Craig's artistic talent but also provides us with an intimate glimpse into everyday life during this era. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaotic cityscapes, there is beauty to be found in simplicity - like that offered by this humble flower girl and her aromatic lavender bouquets.
