EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Highgate Tunnel" takes us back to the early 19th century. Created by the talented artist George Hunt around 1830, this print beautifully captures a moment in time. The scene depicts a bustling archway with a coach and horses passing through, surrounded by an array of intriguing characters. The attention to detail is remarkable as we can see a group of workmen diligently going about their tasks on the roadside. One man holds a hammer while others seem engrossed in their labor. Two dogs playfully frolic nearby, adding an element of liveliness to the composition. The architectural beauty of Highgate Tunnel is showcased in all its glory, with its grand arches towering above the scene. The intricate engravings bring out every fine line and texture, giving depth and dimension to this historical artwork.
