South View of Arundel House in 1646, 1854. Creator: Unknown
South View of Arundel House in 1646, 1854. Large mansion near the River Thames in London. In the South View is shown a strange assemblage of gabled and half-timbered buildings, more in the style of offices than the mansion of one of the most magnificent nobles. On the right is seen the angular pinnacles and central bell-turret of the tower of the old Church of St. Clement Danes, in the Strand; the tower of the present church was not built until 1719, although the body of the church was rebuilt to the old tower in 1682'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854

EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white print, titled 'South View of Arundel House in 1646, 1854,' offers a glimpse into the rich history of London's architectural landscape during the 17th and 19th centuries. The image showcases the South view of Arundel House, a large mansion situated near the River Thames. However, the assemblage of gabled and half-timbered structures depicted in the print appears more akin to offices than the grand residence of one of the most noble families. On the right side of the print, the angular pinnacles and central bell-turret of the old Church of St. Clement Danes in the Strand can be seen. Although the body of the church was rebuilt to the old tower in 1682, the tower itself was not constructed until 1719. This fascinating detail adds an intriguing layer to the historical context of the print.

The image captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back in time to explore the intricacies of Tudor-era architecture and the evolving urban landscape of London. The print also highlights the significance of the press as a medium for documenting and preserving historical records for future generations. This print is a testament to the enduring allure of London's architectural history and the importance of preserving historical records for future generations. The image invites us to delve deeper into the stories and secrets hidden within the walls of Arundel House and the Church of St. Clement Danes, offering a unique perspective on London's rich and complex past.
