EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 17th century print depicts the courtyard of Thomas Gresham's Royal Exchange in London, a historic building modelled on the Bourse of Antwerp. The image transports us back in time to the early days of this iconic structure, which opened its doors in 1571. Gresham, an influential financier and economist, established the Royal Exchange as a center for commerce and social interaction. The elegant architecture, with its intricate columns and ornate details, reflects the grandeur and sophistication of the Elizabethan era. Sadly, this beautiful building would not survive the test of time. In 1666, during the Great Fire of London, the Royal Exchange was tragically destroyed, along with many other historic structures in the city. The loss was deeply felt by the people of London, who had come to cherish the Exchange as a symbol of their thriving commercial community. The print, produced in the century following the fire, serves as a poignant reminder of the past glory and tragic demise of this early historical landmark. Its intricate details and rich colors bring the image to life, allowing us to imagine the hustle and bustle of the courtyard, filled with merchants and traders conducting business under the protective shelter of the Royal Exchange's impressive arches. As we admire this beautiful print, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our historical heritage, and the enduring allure of the past. The story of Thomas Gresham's Royal Exchange is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of architecture to evoke memories and emotions that transcend time.
