The image, created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, showcases the grandeur and ambition behind this architectural endeavor. The Proposed Post Office stands proudly at its center, exuding an air of elegance and importance. Its intricate details are beautifully depicted, showcasing a blend of classical and contemporary architectural styles that were prevalent during that era. This structure was set to become a symbol of progress and efficiency for Liverpool's postal services. The presence of the Duke of York adds an extra layer of prestige to this scene. As he ceremoniously lays down the foundation stone, one can almost feel his determination to ensure that this project would be completed with utmost excellence.
