EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the founding of the Bank of England in 1694. Proposed by William Paterson, this institution was formed with Sir John Houblon as its first Governor. The Bank of England initially found its home in Mercers Hall before moving to Grocers Hall until 1734.
The image exudes a sense of historical significance, showcasing the birthplace of one of the most influential financial institutions in the world. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to a time when commerce and trade were flourishing, and the need for a central bank became increasingly apparent.
Through this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel the excitement and anticipation that must have surrounded the establishment of such an important entity. The faces of those involved - William Paterson, Sir John Houblon, and others - seem to come alive before our eyes, reminding us of their crucial roles in shaping our modern banking system.
Mary Evans Picture Library has truly captured a piece of history with this remarkable print. It serves as a reminder not only of where we came from but also how far we have come since that fateful day in 1694 when the Bank of England was founded.
