EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 18th century, specifically St. James's Square in London. The image showcases the grandeur of this historical square, with Sir Christopher Wren's magnificent St. James's Church standing tall in the background. One notable feature that catches our attention is the pool of water situated at the center of the square. It was added between 1726 and 1728 but unfortunately no longer exists today. This print allows us to glimpse into a bygone era when this serene pond graced the heart of St. James's Square. The architecture surrounding the square reflects both Georgian elegance and traditional British charm, with beautiful houses lining its streets. A horse-drawn carriage can be seen traversing one such road, providing a sense of movement amidst this otherwise still snapshot. As we delve deeper into this monochrome engraving, it becomes evident that religion played an important role in shaping this area as well. The presence of St. James's Church reminds us of its significance within Christian communities during that period. Overall, this print from "The History of Squares of London Topographical and Historical" offers a fascinating glimpse into London's past - a city steeped in history and architectural marvels like St. James's Square and Sir Christopher Wren's iconic church.
