EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1798, offering a glimpse into the historic Tradescants House in South Lambeth, London. The talented artist J Caulfield skillfully captures the essence of this remarkable building that was once occupied by John Tradescant (c1570-c1637), an esteemed traveller, naturalist, and gardener. Known as Turret House due to its distinctive architectural feature, this enchanting residence was also referred to as Tradescants Ark. Its significance lies not only in its beautiful design but also in its association with John Tradescant himself. As we admire this image, we can almost imagine the stories and knowledge that were cultivated within these walls during the 17th and 18th centuries. The monochrome engraving transports us back in time to witness a piece of British history unfold before our eyes. It is fascinating to think about how this house served as a hub for gardening enthusiasts and scholars alike. With its serene surroundings and picturesque country setting, it must have been an ideal location for John Tradescant's botanical pursuits. Thanks to Guildhall Library and Art Gallery's preservation efforts, we are fortunate enough to have access to such visual treasures from England's past. This particular artwork by J Caulfield allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship of the artist and the historical significance of Tradescants House itself.
