A Riverside Street', 1872. On the left men are winching barrels up to the first floor of a warehouse. On the right a group of men and a young boy gather round the foot of a ladder, down which is climbing a man who has come from a platform, which is jutting out from the side of another warehouse. More barrels are being winched up and down the side of this warehouse. Rays of sunlight light up the back of the street, through a narrow arch, to show yet more buildings and people. Taken from London: A Pilgrimage by Blanchard Jerrold and Gustave Dore. A Pilgrimage was a comprehensive portrait of London, but although the book was a commercial success many of the critics disliked it. Several were upset that Jerrold and Dore had concentrated on the poverty that existed in London. Artist: Laplante. | |
