EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting streets of Westminster, London in 1883. The focal point is none other than The Cheshire Cheese Tavern, a beloved establishment that has stood the test of time. As we gaze upon this image, our eyes are immediately drawn to a magnificent carriage parked outside the tavern's entrance. The bustling street comes alive with activity as people go about their daily routines. Horses gracefully pull carriages along the avenue, adding an air of elegance and sophistication to this Victorian scene. John Crowther, the talented artist behind this watercolour masterpiece, skillfully captures every detail with vibrant colors that bring life to the buildings and surroundings. Located on Surrey Street, The Cheshire Cheese Tavern stands tall amidst its neighboring structures. Its exterior exudes charm and character, inviting passersby to step inside for a taste of old-world hospitality. This historic pub holds countless stories within its walls and has become an iconic symbol of British culture. Guildhall Library and Art Gallery proudly houses this remarkable piece by John Crowther - a true testament to his artistic prowess and passion for capturing moments in time. As we admire this snapshot from yesteryear, it serves as a reminder of how transportation once relied on horse-drawn carriages traversing these very streets. Let your imagination wander back in time as you explore this exquisite depiction of 19th-century London - where tradition meets progress at The Cheshire Cheese Tavern on Surrey Street.
