London Stories


Wonderful painting of St Pauls and Ludgate hill from 1889. Of course the railway bridge isn't there anymore as it's been moved underground between Blackfriars and Farringdon. I remember doing a project once in Farringdon street (in the foreground) in the mid-nineties and being annoyed at the building noise from the construction of the City Thameslink line under where the bridge is located in this picture, you wouldn't even know it's there now.
