EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Church of St Mary Somerset, Thames-Street, about to be demolished" takes us back in time to 19th century London. The image showcases the grandeur and architectural beauty of the Church of St Mary Somerset before its unfortunate fate. The church stands proudly on Thames Street, a bustling thoroughfare that was once lined with historic buildings. Its towering spire reaches towards the heavens, while intricate details adorn every corner of its facade. One can only imagine the stories held within those ancient walls. However, this poignant scene captures a somber moment in history as we witness the impending demolition of this magnificent place of worship. It serves as a reminder that even structures steeped in tradition and significance are not immune to progress or change. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every line etched into the print tells a story of craftsmanship and dedication. Through their skilled handiwork, they have immortalized this fleeting moment for future generations to reflect upon. As we gaze upon this evocative engraving from our private collection today, it sparks contemplation about preservation and loss. It reminds us that our built heritage is fragile yet resilient - constantly evolving but forever leaving an indelible mark on our collective memory.
