EDITORS COMMENTS

Standing tall amidst the cityscape is St Augustine's Cathedral, a testament to the enduring presence of Christianity in England. The monochrome palette adds a timeless quality to the scene, emphasizing the grandeur and solemnity of this religious landmark. Its towering spire reaches towards the heavens, rivaling even that of its famous neighbor, St Paul's Cathedral. As we gaze upon this woodcut masterpiece from Robert William Billings' collection at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, we are reminded not only of the artistic skill behind its creation but also of its historical significance. This image serves as a window into an era when religion played a central role in shaping society. Let us appreciate this snapshot frozen in time – an ode to faith and devotion that continues to inspire awe centuries later. As we delve into our past through such remarkable works like these, we gain insight into our shared heritage and find connections between generations long gone and those yet to come.
