EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting landscape of Mortlake, Richmond upon Thames in London, circa 1845. The artist behind this masterpiece is G Howse, who skillfully captures the essence of this historical location. In view is a charming summer house nestled within the grounds of a grand house that holds significant historical connections. Legend has it that this very spot was once occupied by none other than Oliver Cromwell himself, although records confirm it was certainly his son-in-law, Henry Ireton. The image showcases an exquisite blend of colors and nature's beauty as we witness the splendor of 17th-century British architecture against a backdrop of lush greenery. The river Thames gracefully meanders alongside the property, adding to its picturesque charm. One can almost imagine Lord Protector Cromwell strolling through these very gardens or engaging in deep conversations with his trusted confidants. G Howse's attention to detail transports us back in time to experience both the exterior grandeur and tranquil ambiance surrounding Mortlake. This watercolor print serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate not only the architectural marvels but also how nature seamlessly intertwines with man-made structures. Displayed at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this artwork stands as a testament to Britain's rich heritage and offers viewers an opportunity for reflection on centuries past.
