EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic Van Dun Almshouses located on Caxton Street in London, captured by the talented artist James Findlay in 1852. The almshouses were established by Cornelius van Dun, a distinguished Yeoman of the Guard to monarchs Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary I, and Elizabeth I. This philanthropic initiative aimed to provide shelter for twenty impoverished women. The image transports us back to the 16th century when these Tudor-style buildings were constructed. The vibrant colors and intricate details depicted in this watercolor painting bring life to this significant piece of British history. Situated on a peaceful avenue within bustling London, these almshouses served as a symbol of charity and compassion during an era marked by poverty and hardship. The door opens onto a quaint street lined with charming houses that reflect the architectural style of that time. As we admire this artwork from the Guildhall Library and Art Gallery collection, it reminds us of England's rich heritage and its commitment to caring for those less fortunate. It serves as a poignant reminder that acts of kindness have transcended centuries.
