I drew this view for a book I was creating, and it’s a particularly magical spot, having featured in \u003cem\u003eHarry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone\u003c\/em\u003e as the entrance to Diagon Alley.\u003cbr\u003e   The market’s history dates back to 1321, when it traded in meat, poultry and game. In 1411, former Lord Mayor Richard “Dick” Whittington acquired the site and gifted it to the City of London Corporation, which still manages it today.\u003cbr\u003e   The beautiful wrought-iron and glass-roofed structure we see today was designed by Sir Horace Jones, who also designed Tower Bridge, and completed in 1881.\u003cspan\u003e It's now mainly pubs, artsan shops and eateries popular with tourists.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize of artwork: A3 portrait 29.7cm x 42cm (11.75\" x 16.5\")\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrice\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnframed\u003c\/strong\u003e: £150\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMedium:\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003eWatercolour, pencil, ink on 300gsm Winsor \u0026amp; Newton cold press paper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso available signed fine art Giclée prints on 310gsm \u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eHahnemühle German etching paper from original painting: \u003cstrong\u003eA3\u003c\/strong\u003e – £75 \/ \u003cstrong\u003eA4\u003c\/strong\u003e – £45\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCertificate of authenticity provided\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree delivery within UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/skylark-galleries.myshopify.com\/collections\/david-richardson-collection\" title=\"David Richardson collection of artworks for sale\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eClick here\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/a\u003eto return to David Richardson's collection\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Richardson","offers":[{"title":"Original Painting","offer_id":56434035818881,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A3 Print","offer_id":56434035851649,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A4 Print","offer_id":56434035884417,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0297\/4669\/2149\/files\/35LeadenHallHP.jpg?v=1792761666","url":"https:\/\/skylarkgalleries.com\/products\/leadenhall-market-london-by-david-richardson","provider":"Skylark Galleries","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
