This print captures a mesmerizing view across the courtyard at Gresham College in London, circa 1700. Once the esteemed meeting place for the Royal Society until 1710, this architectural gem stood tall until its unfortunate demolition in 1768.

The play of light and shadows creates a captivating contrast that further emphasizes the beauty of this early date photograph. Gazing upon this print transports you back in time, offering a glimpse into London's rich cultural history. It serves as a poignant reminder of how structures can come alive with stories from centuries past. As we admire this remarkable piece from Hulton Archive's collection, let us reflect on Gresham College's significance as not just an educational institution but also as a hub for intellectual exchange during its heyday.
