Artwork description:
Annie Gold and her husband Jacob arrived in London in the late 19th century as Jewish Immigrants from Eastern Europe. They were one couple of tens of thousands who arrived into Spitalfields during that time, fleeing persecution.
Annie set up her shop, a French Milliner; hat makers which would’ve been in good company with the concentration of fabric trade in Spitalfields at that time.
In the 1800s there were 65 independent, small businesses along Brushfield Street. They included a watchmaker, furriers, confectioners, cheesemonger, a fried fish dealer and – less appetising – an undertaker.
However, in 1987, 42 Brushfield was bought and renovated by a Spitalfields resident and designer Marianna Kennedy. The artist Jim Howett restored the original A. Gold. signage in 1996, picking the later paint off the board to reveal the late 19th century sign.
Materials used:
Giclée print using pigment inks on Baryta FB paper.
