EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the Custom House in London during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. Created by artist Bartholomew Howlett, this engraving showcases the south view of the magnificent building that tragically succumbed to a devastating fire in 1666. The detailed craftsmanship transports us to an era filled with history and grandeur. The image captures the bustling river Thames, lined with boats and ships engaged in trade and transportation. The Custom House stands proudly on the riverbank, its impressive exterior reflecting its importance as a hub for finance and taxation during Elizabethan England. Its architectural beauty is evident even through this monochrome depiction. As we gaze upon this piece, we can't help but imagine how vibrant and lively this area must have been centuries ago. The quayside teeming with activity, merchants negotiating deals, sailors unloading cargo - all contributing to London's thriving economy. Preserved within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery since its creation around 1815 from an earlier print dated 1663, this anonymous masterpiece serves as a testament to our rich heritage. It allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent of Bartholomew Howlett and the historical significance of one of London's most iconic landmarks.
