EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the historic moment when King James I of England visited St. Paul's Cathedral in London in March 1620. The monarch, dressed in his regal robes and holding a Bible, listens intently to a sermon delivered at the Cross of St. Paul. The backdrop of the cathedral, with its magnificent dome and intricate stonework, adds to the grandeur of the scene. However, this visit proved to be a turning point in the history of St. Paul's. King James I had arrived with plans to build a new tower for the cathedral, which was intended to be an impressive addition to the already impressive structure. The cost of the project was estimated to be a substantial 22,536 pounds. Unfortunately, the king's grand plan was scuppered during his visit. The high cost of the tower project, combined with the financial strain caused by other building projects and ongoing wars, made it an unaffordable endeavor. The king left St. Paul's Cathedral without securing the necessary funds for the tower, leaving the dream of a taller and more magnificent structure unrealized. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich history of St. Paul's Cathedral and the events that shaped its development. The image is a testament to the enduring allure of this iconic London landmark and the fascinating stories that lie within its walls.
