EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Sheffield, the bustling city of 1822. Titled "Plan of Sheffield" this exquisite engraving was created by Alfred Smith for Edward Baines' renowned publication, the history and directory of Yorkshire. The attention to detail is remarkable as it showcases an intricate view of the city's landscape. As we delve into this historical masterpiece, our eyes are immediately drawn to the General Infirmary situated at the bottom left corner. A symbol of compassion and care, this prominent building stands tall amidst a sea of architectural wonders that defined Sheffield during its early years. The scale provided on this print allows us to appreciate just how vast and expansive Sheffield was at that time. With every inch representing 300 yards, one can only imagine the sheer magnitude and grandeur that awaited those who walked these streets centuries ago. Preserved meticulously within Sheffield Libraries' archives, this original piece offers a glimpse into a bygone era. It serves as a testament to both the rich heritage and progressive spirit that have shaped not only Sheffield but also Yorkshire as a whole. Let us cherish this extraordinary snapshot from history while honoring its significance in mapping out our past. May it inspire future generations to explore their roots and appreciate how far we have come since those days captured so beautifully in ink on paper.
