EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the chaotic scene of London during the Great Fire of 1666. The engraving, created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, offers a glimpse into one of history's most devastating events. The image is part of a private collection and was featured in "The Illustrated History of the World" published by Ward Lock around 1880. London during the Fire showcases a city engulfed in flames, with billowing smoke filling the sky and buildings ablaze from every corner. The meticulous details within this digitally cleaned image allow viewers to immerse themselves in this historical moment. It serves as a reminder of both the destructive power and resilience of humanity. Look closely at this print to witness brave citizens attempting to salvage their belongings amidst chaos while others flee for safety. The intensity captured here reflects not only physical destruction but also emotional turmoil experienced by Londoners during that fateful time. Bridgeman Images has masterfully preserved this piece, ensuring its availability for generations to come. This artwork transports us back in time, allowing us to reflect on our shared history and appreciate how far we have come since that tragic event over three centuries ago.
