EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed coloured engraving titled "Tyburn Turnpike" takes us back to 19th century London, capturing a moment in time when tolls and turnpikes played a significant role in transportation. The print, part of the Private Collection, showcases the bustling Tyburn Turnpike as it appeared in 1813. The image invites us to immerse ourselves in the scene; we can almost hear the clattering hooves of horses and the rumble of carriage wheels on this busy road. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable – from the intricately designed toll booth to the diverse array of carriages and pedestrians passing by. Tyburn Turnpike was an essential checkpoint for travelers entering or leaving London, where they would pay their fees before continuing their journey. This engraving offers a glimpse into daily life during this era, highlighting how travel was not only about reaching one's destination but also navigating these checkpoints along the way. Published by Ackermann, a renowned publisher at that time, this artwork captures both historical significance and artistic beauty. It serves as a reminder of how our modern transport systems have evolved over time while paying homage to an important aspect of London's past. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece through Fine Art Finder, allowing us to appreciate its historical value today.
