Church of St Mary-le-Bow - A Glimpse into 18th Century London
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white aquatint print takes us back to the bustling streets of Cheapside in the City of London, circa 1798. The artist, Sir Christopher Wren, renowned for his architectural genius, beautifully captures the grandeur of the Church of St Mary-le-Bow in this exquisite piece. As we gaze upon this monochrome scene, our eyes are drawn towards the magnificent church tower that proudly stands tall amidst a sea of horse-drawn carriages and people going about their daily lives. The avenue leading up to the church is lined with elegant buildings that showcase the architectural style prevalent during that era. The image offers a glimpse into both religious and secular life at the time. It portrays a harmonious coexistence between Christianity and commerce as worshippers make their way to St Mary-le-Bow while traders engage in business activities along Cheapside. Thomas Malton II skillfully captures not only the physical structure but also conveys a sense of movement within this snapshot of history. The lively street scene transports us back to an era where road transport was dominated by horse-drawn vehicles navigating through narrow lanes. This print serves as a valuable historical document preserved by Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, allowing us to appreciate Sir Christopher Wren's architectural masterpiece against its vibrant urban backdrop. It invites contemplation on how religion shaped society while reflecting on London's rich heritage during this significant period
