Pubs, markets and everyday streets come to life in prints from The Londoner's England, a post-war portrait of the capital and the home counties by a remarkable group of artists. Alan Bott edited the work, published by Avalon Press and William Collins in London in 1947, with colour and duochrome lithography and halftone reproducing drawings by Charles Ginner, Randolph Schwabe, Barbara Jones, Henry Rushbury and others. London subjects range from the Euston Arch and Bow Church to Shepherd Market, riverside taverns and modest neighbourhood buildings, while country towns and coastal places in Sussex, Kent, Buckinghamshire and other nearby counties bring in inns, market halls and mills.
