EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts Sir Christopher Wren, the renowned English architect, in the year 1723, at the age of 91. Wren is best known for his groundbreaking designs, most notably St. Paul's Cathedral in London, which was completed in 1711 after the Great Fire of London destroyed the previous cathedral in 1666. Wren's signature style, characterized by its grandeur and symmetry, is evident in the architectural masterpieces he left behind. In this portrait, Wren is shown wearing the traditional attire of the time - a voluminous wig, a cravat, and a simple robe. In his hand, he holds a pair of compasses, a symbol of his profession and an essential tool for drafting his intricate designs. The inscription below the image reads "SIR CHRISTOPHER WREN, ARCHITECTA MAGNIFICA," which translates to "Sir Christopher Wren, Magnificent Architect." This title was well-deserved, as Wren's work revolutionized the field of architecture and left an indelible mark on the history of London and beyond. Born in 1632, Wren's career spanned over seven decades, during which he designed and built over 50 churches, 40 hospitals, and numerous other structures. His work was not limited to London, as he also designed buildings in Oxford, Cambridge, and other parts of England. This print is a testament to Wren's enduring legacy and his contributions to the world of architecture. It is a reminder of the power of creativity and the ability to transform the built environment, leaving a lasting impact on future generations.
