EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut engraving, titled 'View of the Guildhall in Moorgate,' offers a glimpse into the historical heart of London during the early 19th century. The image showcases several iconic landmarks, including London Guildhall, Gog and Magog, and the Mansion House. London Guildhall, located in the City of London, was the ancient seat of the Corporation of London and served as a hub for the city's trade guilds. Adorning the Guildhall's entrance are the mythological statues of Gogmagog and Corineus. According to legend, Gogmagog was a giant who was defeated by the legendary King Arthur and his knights. The statues represent the subjugation of the wild and the triumph of civilization. In the foreground, a grand procession unfolds as the Lord Mayor's coach, drawn by six horses, makes its way past the Chief Magistrate's House. The blue-coated soldiers and the ornate decorations on the coach underscore the grandeur and importance of the ceremony. The engraving also features other notable London landmarks, such as St. Paul's Cathedral, the dome of which can be seen in the background, and the Church of Christ Hospital. The image offers a snapshot of London's rich history, trades, and cultural significance during this period. This engraving is a beautiful example of the Romantic era's fascination with the past and the desire to preserve and document the world around them. It was produced by Ann and Jane Taylor, English sisters who were prolific poets and writers of children's books. The image was published by Harvey and Darton, a renowned publishing house in Gracechurch Street, London, in 1828. The engraving serves as an educational and travel resource, providing a glimpse into the history, geography, and culture of London during this period.
