EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century print, titled "Whitehall from the Thames," showcases a historical view of London's Whitehall Palace as seen from the River Thames. The image, created by the renowned English engraver and printmaker, Wenceslaus Hollar, in 1647, offers a unique perspective of the grand palace complex during the English Civil War era. In the foreground, a royal barge is shown making its way along the Thames, with several rowing boats following suit. The palace's impressive jetty and pier extend into the river, providing a sense of the grand scale of the palace complex. The focus of the print, however, is the stunning Banqueting House, designed by the famous architect Inigo Jones, which stands proudly in the background. The Banqueting House, with its distinctive classical design, was the first major building in England to be built in the Renaissance style. It was commissioned by King James I in 1619 and completed in 1622. The building's impressive façade, with its large windows and ornate columns, is a testament to the architectural prowess of the time. The print also offers a glimpse into the Privy Stairs and White Hall Palace Stairs, which can be seen in the background, leading up to the palace. These stairs were used by the monarch and their court to access the palace from the Thames. The intricate detail in the print, from the winding staircases to the intricately designed boats, showcases Hollar's exceptional skill as an engraver and his ability to capture the essence of the era. This print provides a fascinating insight into the history of Whitehall Palace and the River Thames during the English Civil War era. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of England and the architectural marvels of the past.
