Description: Original circa 1920 water color entitled: " The Curfew Tower, St. Albans - Herts" by Emma G. Pizey a Somerset watercolorist who exhibited in the UK in the 1920s. In it's original wood frame with the artist's original label cut from the original wooden backing and applied to the back. The mat and backing have been replaced with acid free materials. Sight size is 11" by 7 3/4", framed out to 16" by 12 3/4". Nice populated street scene. The St Albans' Clock Tower is the only surviving medieval town belfry in England and is designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The people of St Albans built the tower, which was completed by 1405 as a symbol of their resistance against the power of the abbot of St Albans. The Tower allowed the town to sound its own hours and, until 1863, the curfew. The Clock Tower's bell rang out for the first Battle of St Albans during the Wars of the Roses in 1455.
