EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and significance of the Excise Office in Old Broad Street, City of London. Illuminated in June 1814, this architectural masterpiece served as a symbol of commemoration for the signing of the Treaty of Paris, marking an end to the long and tumultuous War between France and the Sixth Coalition. The aquatint technique used by an anonymous artist beautifully brings out the intricate details and vibrant colors of this historic moment. The image showcases a bustling avenue with buildings lining both sides, showcasing British architecture at its finest. The Excise Office stands proudly in the center, its facade brilliantly lit up against the night sky. Located near Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this scene radiates peace and celebration. It serves as a reminder that even after years of conflict during the Napoleonic Wars, nations can come together to find common ground. John Brewster's remarkable composition captures not only a physical location but also conveys a concept – one that signifies unity among countries striving for peace. This photograph print transports us back to 19th-century England when such celebrations were held with great fervor. As we gaze upon this historical gem, let us reflect on how far we have come since those turbulent times while cherishing our hard-won tranquility.
