Charles Ginner found character in London's market streets, greens and local landmarks, and these prints, published in 1947, show his eye for the city's west and centre. The painter, who lived from 1878 to 1952, depicts Shepherd Market in Mayfair, Pelham Crescent in South Kensington and the Swan Inn on Bayswater Road. Knightsbridge Green and Paddington Green open up spaces within the built city, and St Giles-in-the-Fields adds a church setting, each subject a different arrangement of street frontage, open ground and familiar buildings.
