Inside 18th Century London – The World's Busiest City in the Georgian Era

Описание: Step into the heart of 18th-century London – the largest, wealthiest, and most chaotic city in Europe during the Georgian era. With over 750,000 inhabitants by mid-century, London was a pulsating metropolis of global trade, neoclassical splendor, coffee house debates, and stark inequality. The River Thames carried silks from China, spices from India, sugar from the Caribbean, and fortunes from empire, while narrow alleys hid slums, gin-soaked despair, pickpockets, and disease.

This cinematic reconstruction explores daily life: bustling docks and Royal Exchange merchants, aristocratic squares and salons, St. Paul's dome rising from Wren's post-Fire vision, Old London Bridge lined with houses, Cheapside markets, the gin craze, Enlightenment thinkers, and the raw energy of a city on the brink of industrial transformation.
