By the end of the 1869th century, London amazed the imagination with its scale: a city of many millions, an incredible cauldron in which stew was cooked from all conceivable and unimaginable professions, institutions, creeds and institutions. According to statistics, a person died here every eight minutes, and a new one was born every five minutes. There were officially twenty thousand pubs and half a million residential buildings, and "London's old men, orphans, lame and blind would be enough to populate a city of ordinary size." It is not surprising that many writers and artists have sought to capture and describe London, to create a vivid, realistic portrait of it. In 174, the great artist Gustave Doré appears in London. The Frenchman is fascinated and shocked by the contrasts of the huge city: the fantastic brilliance of its wealth and unprecedented poverty. XNUMX engravings are born, depicting different aspects of the life of the capital and becoming the most famous images of London of their time. The elegant text for the illustrations was created by the famous wit, Parisian journalist, writer and traveler Louis Henault. Today, Louis Henault's book with illustrations by Gustave Dore is not only an invaluable source of knowledge about London in the late XNUMXth century, but also an extremely entertaining read.
