EDITORS COMMENTS
The Black Lion, Church Street, Chelsea in 1820: A Glimpse into London's Rich History". This print takes us back to the vibrant streets of Chelsea in 1820. The image showcases the iconic Black Lion Inn, a beloved establishment that has stood the test of time. With its charming Georgian architecture and prominent chimney stacks billowing smoke into the sky, this pub has been an integral part of the community since its establishment in the 17th century. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from history, we see a bustling avenue filled with people going about their day. A lady on horseback gracefully passes by as men gather outside the inn, engaging in lively conversations under the warm glow of gas lamps. The presence of a dog adds an endearing touch to this scene. The engraving captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects England's rich cultural heritage. It is fascinating to witness how buildings like these have evolved over centuries while still retaining their charm and character. Today, known as "The Pigs Ear" this historic pub continues to serve as a gathering place for locals and visitors alike. This print reminds us of London's enduring spirit and invites us to appreciate both its past and present beauty.
