EDITORS COMMENTS
Essex Road, Islington, London, 1842: A Glimpse into the Past". This print takes us back to the enchanting streets of Essex Road in Islington, London, during the year 1842. Painted by renowned artist Robert Blemmell Schnebbelie, it beautifully captures a moment frozen in time. The focal point of this image is Mr Corbets school, an educational institution nestled next to the historic Queens Head Tavern on Lower Road (now known as Essex Road). Once the residence of Joseph White, a notable coin collector who met his final days within its walls. The building exudes charm and character with its classic architecture and inviting presence. As we explore further into this scene from the past, we are greeted by a bustling street filled with people going about their daily lives. The vibrant colors bring life to every detail - from the lush greenery that adorns trees lining the lane to various plants dotting windowsills. This watercolor painting not only showcases architectural beauty but also offers insights into education and society during Britain's nineteenth century. It serves as a valuable historical artifact preserved at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery. Transport yourself back in time through this remarkable artwork and immerse yourself in the rich history of Essex Road. Let your imagination wander as you envision what life was like for those who once walked these very streets.
