EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the 15th century, offering a mesmerizing glimpse of The Tower of London. From an aerial perspective, we are presented with a birds-eye view of this formidable fortress, showcasing its medieval architecture and fortified walls that have stood the test of time. The Tower's rich history is palpable as we take in every intricate detail captured by the skilled lithographer. This iconic landmark, which began construction in the late 11th century and was completed by 1350, has witnessed countless significant events throughout England's past. As our eyes wander over the image, we can almost hear echoes from centuries ago reverberating through its stone walls. We imagine knights clad in armor patrolling its ramparts while guards keep watch over the River Thames flowing nearby. The composition exudes a sense of grandeur and power, emphasizing The Tower's role as both a symbol of royal authority and a place of imprisonment for those who dared to challenge it. It stands tall against the backdrop of London's skyline, reminding all who gaze upon it that no one is above its reach. This print serves as a testament to William Hickman Smith Aubrey's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to transport viewers into another era. It allows us to appreciate not only The Tower itself but also the craftsmanship involved in capturing such historical moments on paper.
