EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Old Surgeons Hall, Fifth Street Below Library, 1765-1807" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Philadelphia during the late 18th century. The image showcases a magnificent architectural gem that once stood proudly on Fifth Street below Library. The hall itself exudes an air of grandeur with its imposing facade and intricate detailing. Its elegant windows and towering columns hint at the importance of this building within the community. One can only imagine the significant medical discoveries and breakthroughs that took place within those hallowed walls. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every line etched into this print tells a story of history frozen in time. From the cobblestone street below to the people going about their daily lives, each element adds depth and authenticity to this scene. This engraving was originally created by an American School artist in the 19th century for Harper's Monthly Magazine in 1895. Now part of a private collection, it serves as a window into Philadelphia's past – a reminder of its rich heritage as one of America's oldest cities. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back to an era where medicine met artistry, where knowledge flourished within these sacred halls. It is through such images that we can appreciate both our shared history and marvel at how far we have come since those early days in Philadelphia's vibrant past.
