EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled 'St Helens Priory and the Adjacent Leathersellers Hall' is an elegant depiction of two historic structures in the heart of London, as captured by the skilled hand of Malcolm in 1799. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past with its intricate details and meticulous shading. St Helens Priory, a former monastery, stands proudly in the background, its Gothic architecture a testament to the rich history of the area. The priory, founded in the 11th century, was once home to a community of Augustinian Canons. The ruins of the priory, which still remain today, are a popular tourist attraction and serve as a reminder of London's religious past. Adjacent to St Helens Priory, the Leathersellers Hall can be seen. This impressive building, with its grand columns and ornate detailing, was the headquarters of the Worshipful Company of Leather Sellers, one of the oldest guilds in the City of London. The guild, which dates back to the 12th century, was responsible for regulating the leather trade in the city. The engraving captures the harmonious coexistence of these two historic structures, with the sun casting a warm glow over the scene. The intricate details of the buildings, from the intricate carvings on the priory to the ornate columns of the Leathersellers Hall, are beautifully rendered, making this an exquisite piece of historical art. This engraving, produced by Malcolm in 1799, offers a unique perspective of London's history and serves as a reminder of the city's rich past. The image invites us to imagine the hustle and bustle of the city, the sounds of the leather trade, and the daily life of the monks and guild members that once called these historic structures home.
