EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent St Bartholomew-the-Great, a historic church located in the heart of the City of London. Created by renowned artist William Henry Toms in 1737, this engraving offers a mesmerizing west view of the iconic religious structure. The attention to detail is evident as Toms masterfully captures every architectural nuance and intricate design element. Beneath this stunning depiction lies a dedication, description, and coat of arms that further enhance its historical significance. These elements serve as a testament to the rich heritage and deep-rooted traditions associated with St Bartholomew-the-Great. As we delve into this artwork from the eighteenth century, we are transported back in time to an era when Christianity played an integral role in shaping society. This image not only celebrates the beauty of religious architecture but also serves as a reminder of London's spiritual past. Preserved within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this engraving stands as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable historical artifact. Its inclusion of heraldry adds another layer of intrigue, showcasing symbols that were significant to those who worshipped at St Bartholomew-the-Great during that period. With Robert West's name mentioned alongside William Henry Toms', it hints at their collaboration or perhaps West's ownership or patronage over this remarkable piece. Regardless, this print allows us to appreciate the enduring legacy and cultural importance attached to one of London's most cherished churches – St Bartholomew-the-G
