From the preface: "Over the centuries London has been visited by many artists from abroad and this exhibition is an attempt to illustrate how each visitor has in turn found inspiration from the city. The exhibition interprets this 'image' of London, reveals how the city has changed through four hundred years, and explores the idea of the city in the mind of the visitors and their response to it. Wyngaerde was the earlist artist to attempt to represent the city with relative accuracy. He conceived London as a great Gothic city with many towers and spires. Thomas Wyek may have witnessed the Great Fire, and he certainly painted several views of it. After the Fire, London was rapidly rebuilt and expanded. The subsequent completion of the new cathedral and the City's increasing commercial success attracted many traveller-artists. With its bustling market, Covent Garden was a favourite subject of the 18th-century artists such as Van Aken and Angillis. By contrast the serene Thames views of Canaletto and Joli recall Venice, and their interpretation of London as a city of grace and enlightenment seem more in keeping with the neo-classical order that fashioned the second half of the 18th Century. In the 19th Century artists began to depict the darker side of London. Focusing upon scenes of labour, poverty and suffering in an oppressive industrial environment, G?ricault and Dor? portrayed the Babylonian image of London. Nevertheless, Victorian London was also shown as a city of success and wealth. The river scenes of Whistler, and the busy, yet fashionable Street scenes of Bianche, Tissot and De Nittis represent it as essentially a hive of activity, business and busy-ness. Wistler and Monet were also inspired by the atmosphere of London, the foggy and nocturnal views ...

15229Albion Iron Works Westbromwich West Bromwich. 21 June 1844. With 'WEST BROMWICH' postmark. 1p. 4to. Bifolium addressed on the reverse of the second leaf to 'Messrs. Thomson Hankey <& Co> Merchants 7 Mincing Lane London'. The second leaf is also docketed and carries two circular postmarks one from 'WEST BROMWICH'. Williams writes that he has returned to find 'an enquiry about the nails & chains'. He gives a price below which he cannot go adding: 'I must be paid for the Casks: but if a quantity of nails had been wanted I would have given my trouble on the other things as I should have made a profit on the nails'. The 'last Casks were indifferent as the P<> had a bad bargain. I would not send new ones. If I send more I must buy them.' The final paragraph reads: 'I confess the price for Chains seems high but they are very light & would be useless if made with bad iron such as Scotch hot blast but if you will venture that I am of opinion you may get them in London at a lower rate. I will assist you if you wish without making any charge for services.' Albion Iron Works, Westbromwich [West Bromwich]. 21 June 1844. With 'WEST BROMWICH' postmark. unknown
