EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and historical significance of the Lamb Building, located in Church Court, Temple, City of London. The entrance to this remarkable structure is adorned with a meticulously carved model of the Lamb of God, proudly displayed in the pediment above the door. Constructed in 1667, the Lamb Building stood as a testament to architectural brilliance for centuries. However, its fate took a tragic turn during World War II when it fell victim to devastating bombing on May 11th, 1941. This image serves as a poignant reminder of both loss and destruction that war inflicts upon our cherished landmarks. Charles William Prickett's skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only the intricate details of this magnificent building but also its historical significance within legal circles. The Lamb Building once served as an esteemed legal office where countless Stuart-era cases were handled with utmost professionalism. While we mourn the loss caused by wartime devastation, let us also celebrate this photograph's ability to preserve and immortalize such an iconic piece of London's history. Through Prickett's lens, we are granted access to a visual time capsule that transports us back in time while reminding us never to forget those who have suffered due to conflict and destruction.
