Painting Description
"The Rectorial House, Newington Butts, 1852" is a notable artwork by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd, an English artist renowned for his detailed and picturesque urban scenes. Shepherd, who lived from 1792 to 1864, specialized in watercolors and engravings that captured the architectural and street views of 19th-century Britain. His works are celebrated for their accuracy and attention to detail, providing valuable historical records of the period's urban landscapes.
This particular piece, "The Rectorial House, Newington Butts, 1852," depicts a significant building located in the Newington Butts area of London. Newington Butts, historically part of the parish of Newington in the county of Surrey, is now within the London Borough of Southwark. The area has a rich history, with its name believed to derive from archery butts, which were targets used in archery practice during the medieval period.
