EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 17th century, immersing us in the grandeur of old St Paul's Cathedral in the City of London. Standing proudly within its hallowed walls is the magnificent Monument of Alexander Noel, a testament to both British architecture and Christian faith. The etching by Wenceslaus Hollar, displayed at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, transports us to a time when religion played a central role in society. The monochrome tones lend an air of timelessness to this portrait of Alexander Noel, a distinguished man who contributed greatly to his country. As we gaze upon him, we can't help but wonder about his life and accomplishments during this pivotal period in English history. The interior setting adds depth and intimacy to the image, allowing us to imagine ourselves standing alongside other men who have come here seeking solace or inspiration. It serves as a reminder that St Paul's Cathedral has long been more than just a physical structure; it is a sanctuary for those seeking spiritual guidance. Through this photograph, we are transported back centuries ago when religious devotion was intertwined with daily life. It reminds us of our rich heritage and the enduring power of faith that continues to shape our world today.
