EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Old London Bridge, providing a glimpse into the city's rich history. Dating back to around 1600, this image is a rare and genuine full view of the bridge, derived from a unique drawing found in Pepys collection at Magdalen College, Cambridge. The illustration comes from "A Short History of the English People" by John Richard Green, an illustrated edition that was published in 1893 by Macmillan and Co. The print beautifully captures the architectural marvel of this medieval bridge, which stood for centuries as a symbol of British engineering prowess. Spanning across the majestic River Thames, Old London Bridge served as a vital transportation link connecting different parts of the city. Its impressive construction reflected both the craftsmanship and ingenuity prevalent during its time. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, this print transports us back to an era when London was still evolving. It offers viewers a panoramic view that encompasses not only the bridge but also various buildings along its stretch. As we admire this historical gem captured by an unknown creator and preserved through W Griggs' expertise in printing techniques, we are reminded of how geography shapes our understanding of countries like England. This image serves as a testament to London's enduring legacy while honoring John Richard Green's contribution to documenting Britain's past.
