EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Pool of London from Rotherhithe, with ships in the foreground, c1890" transports us back to the bustling maritime scene of 19th century England. The artist behind this masterpiece is Edwin Edwards, whose etching skillfully captures the essence of a bygone era. The image showcases a panoramic view of the Pool of London, located in Bermondsey, Southwark. In the foreground, majestic ships gracefully navigate through the River Thames while docked at various wharves. These vessels symbolize Britain's thriving trade industry during that time. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to this historical snapshot. It allows us to appreciate every intricate detail - from the masts towering above each ship to the reflection of their silhouettes on the calm waters below. Preserved within this artwork is not just a geographical feature but also a testament to England's rich maritime heritage. The Pool of London served as a vital port for centuries and played an integral role in transporting goods across waterways. This remarkable piece can be found at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, serving as a reminder of our country's vibrant past. Its timeless appeal transcends commercial use; instead, it invites viewers to immerse themselves in history and marvel at how transportation and trade have shaped our world today.
