The Tower of London, c. 1637-41
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back in time to the heart of medieval England. Created by Wenceslaus Hollar, this exquisite pen and ink drawing showcases his meticulous attention to detail. The view depicted in the artwork transports us to the banks of the Thames River, where we stand gazing northeast towards the majestic Tower of London. The iconic White Tower stands tall and proud amidst a cluster of other towers such as St Thomas's Tower, Traitors Gate, Lantern Tower, Salt Tower, Cradle Tower, Byward Tower, and Bell Tower. As our eyes wander across this historic scene, we notice merchant ships and boats gracefully gliding along the river's surface. Their presence adds a touch of liveliness to an otherwise stoic fortress-like structure. Hollar's skillful use of watercolors brings life to every facet of this architectural masterpiece. The intricate details on each building facade draw us closer into their world while hinting at stories untold within their prison walls. This print not only captures the essence of England's rich history but also serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these structures continue to stand strong against time's relentless march forward. Displayed proudly at the British Museum in London today, "The Tower Of London" remains an enduring symbol of power and resilience for all who behold it.
