EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print, dating back to circa 1710, showcases an enchanting view of the Custom House in London, England, as designed by the renowned architect Sir Christopher Wren. The Custom House, located at the Tower Hill, served as the main customs office for the Port of London, responsible for collecting duties on imported and exported goods. The image captures the grandeur and sophistication of the building, with its impressive classical facade adorned with intricate columns and decorative elements. The Thames River flows calmly in the foreground, reflecting the elegant lines of the Custom House, while boats and ships can be seen anchored in the distance. It is important to note that this print predates the tragic fire that consumed the Custom House on September 8, 1718. The fire, which broke out in the early hours of the morning, destroyed the original building and caused significant damage to the surrounding area. Despite the loss, the Custom House was swiftly rebuilt, with Wren overseeing the reconstruction. The new building, completed in 1733, was even more magnificent than its predecessor, featuring a larger floor area and a taller central tower. This print offers a rare glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of the Custom House as it stood before the devastating fire of 1718. The image serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Sir Christopher Wren and his vision for London's architectural landscape.
