EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the bustling streets of 19th century London. The image showcases the temporary entrance to Charing Cross Station from Villiers Street, a scene that was captured by an anonymous English artist and published in The Illustrated London News on February 13,1866. The print transports us to a vibrant moment in history, where architecture meets fashion and daily life unfolds before our eyes. A diverse crowd fills the street, their clothing reflecting the trends of the era - men donning top hats and waistcoats while women elegantly parade with bonnets and full skirts. The grandeur of Charing Cross Station's temporary entrance is evident as it stands tall amidst its surroundings. Its intricate design hints at Victorian architectural brilliance, showcasing ornate details that were characteristic of the period. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are reminded of how much has changed over time. Yet, despite the years that have passed since this image was created, there is a timeless quality to it - capturing both the essence of London's past and its enduring spirit. This print from Bridgeman Images invites us to marvel at a bygone era when steam trains ruled these tracks and Charing Cross Station served as a gateway for countless journeys into or out of England's capital city.
