EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the label of an Arrival and Loss Book from 1774, featured in the book "A History of Lloyd's" by Charles Wright and C. Ernest Fayle. The image transports us back to the 18th century, providing a glimpse into the world of insurance at that time. The close-up shot reveals intricate lettering in English text, emphasizing the importance of record-keeping during this period. The capital letters are meticulously crafted, showcasing the attention to detail prevalent in historical literature. The label itself is a symbol of membership and belonging to Lloyd's Coffee House, which eventually evolved into Lloyds of London - one of Britain's most renowned insurance companies. This visual representation highlights the significance that coffee houses held as meeting places for merchants and traders who sought protection against loss or damage. As we delve deeper into history through this monochrome portrait, we are reminded of how concepts such as arrival and loss were integral parts of life even centuries ago. The unknown artist behind this print has skillfully captured both the essence and legacy associated with Lloyd's Coffee House. This photograph serves as a valuable artifact, preserving not only a piece of British heritage but also shedding light on an industry that continues to shape our modern world. It invites us to reflect on how far we have come while honoring those who laid its foundations in times long gone by.
