EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1894, capturing a moment frozen in time. The image showcases the crypt of Sir John de Pulteneys Mansion, located on Laurence Poultney Hill in London. The colour lithograph by Philip Norman beautifully depicts this architectural marvel that has since been lost to history. The intricate details of the crypt's design are brought to life through Norman's skilled brushstrokes. One can't help but be mesmerized by the grandeur and elegance of this old building, which stood as a testament to London's rich architectural heritage. However, it is bittersweet knowing that this magnificent structure no longer graces Laurence Poultney Hill. Its demolition serves as a reminder of how quickly things can change and vanish from our lives. Norman's illustration was originally created for his book "London Vanished and Vanishing" published in 1905. Through his artistry and descriptive prose, he aimed to preserve these lost treasures for future generations. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time, immersing ourselves in an era long gone. It is a poignant reminder of the impermanence of buildings and the importance of cherishing our architectural heritage before it becomes nothing more than faded memories captured within photographs like these.
