EDITORS COMMENTS
The Monument, City of London, 1817. A captivating print that takes us back to the heart of 19th century Britain. J Greig's artistic talent beautifully captures Sir Christopher Wren's magnificent monument, standing tall as a symbol of resilience and remembrance. This awe-inspiring pillar commemorates the devastating outbreak of the Great Fire in 1666, an event etched into the history books. The photograph showcases not only the architectural brilliance but also highlights the significance of Christianity in British society during this era. The towering spire reaches towards the heavens, reminding us of the enduring power of faith and its role in shaping our cities. Located on Monument Street, this iconic structure stands as a testament to both human achievement and religious devotion. Its presence amidst bustling streets serves as a reminder that even amidst modernity, we must never forget our past. J Greig's monochrome depiction adds depth and character to this historical masterpiece. The intricate details captured by his lens transport us back in time; every column tells a story, every lane whispers tales from centuries ago. This print is more than just an image; it is a window into another world – one where architecture meets religion and history intertwines with artistry.
