Banqueting Lord Mayor Westminster
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the grandeur of London's past. The focal point of the image is the Lord Mayor's Banqueting House, standing proudly on the site of Stratford Place in Oxford Street. Drawn by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd between 1820 and 1859, this meticulous drawing showcases his remarkable talent for capturing architectural details. The Banqueting House itself exudes elegance and sophistication with its intricate façade adorned with ornate carvings. Its prominent position within Westminster adds to its allure as an important hub for social gatherings and celebrations hosted by influential figures. As we explore further, our eyes are drawn to the water conduits that surround the building, hinting at their vital role in supplying water to this bustling city during a time when such amenities were not readily available. This artwork allows us to travel back in time and marvel at London's rich history while appreciating Shepherd's artistic prowess. Preserved in a private collection but made accessible through Bridgeman Art Gallery, it serves as a reminder of how art can transport us across centuries and immerse us in different eras.
