EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic House of Sir Isaac Newton at 35 St Martins Street, Leicester Square, London in 1850. The renowned physicist and mathematician, Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727), resided in this very house from 1710 to 1725. A place where groundbreaking scientific discoveries were made and revolutionary theories formulated. The image showcases the architectural beauty of the house, which unfortunately met its demise in 1913 when it was demolished. However, through this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness a piece of history that once stood proudly on these grounds. Adjacent to the house is a glimpse of the Chapel built by the Huguenots in 1693. This adds another layer of historical significance to the scene as it represents an important part of religious heritage within London's cultural tapestry. John Wykeham Archer (1808-64) skillfully captured this moment with his watercolor technique, allowing us to appreciate both the grandeur and intricacies of this iconic residence. As we gaze upon this print today, we can't help but feel a sense of awe for those who walked through its doors centuries ago – visionaries like Sir Isaac Newton whose genius forever changed our understanding of physics and mathematics. It serves as a reminder that even great minds find solace within humble abodes such as these.
