EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century City of London. The focal point is the magnificent Church of St Vedast Foster Lane, standing tall against the backdrop of a busy avenue. Its stunning architecture, designed by the renowned Sir Christopher Wren in the 17th century, showcases his mastery in blending beauty and grandeur. In this snapshot frozen in time, we catch sight of a man on horseback gracefully passing by. His presence adds an intriguing touch to the scene, evoking curiosity about his purpose or destination amidst the city's vibrant atmosphere. The image was captured through an engraving technique by John Le Keux, showcasing his skillful artistry and attention to detail. It serves as a testament to both British history and Christian heritage that have shaped England's cultural landscape over centuries. Preserved within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery's collection, this monochrome masterpiece allows us to immerse ourselves in a different era. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of our connection with those who once walked these very streets long ago.
