EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent St. Dunstan's-in-the-East, a historic church located in the heart of the City of London. Dating back to the 11th century, this architectural gem suffered significant damage during the Great Fire of London but was skillfully restored between 1668 and 1671. The talented Sir Christopher Wren later added an exquisite spire to this sacred place between 1695 and 1701. The image captures the grandeur of this medieval masterpiece set against a backdrop of bustling city life. Its monochrome tones evoke a sense of timelessness, transporting us back to a bygone era when religion played a central role in society. Published in Walter Thornbury's renowned work "Old and New London" this photograph is not only an artistic representation but also serves as historical documentation. It allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship that went into constructing such an awe-inspiring structure and its significance within British history. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how architecture can transcend time, connecting us with our ancestors while standing as a testament to their faith and dedication. St. Dunstan's-in-the-East stands proudly amidst modernity, reminding us that even amidst change, there are enduring symbols that anchor us to our past and inspire future generations.
