EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Lamb Building, located in Church Court, Temple, City of London. The image showcases the grand entrance of this historical structure, adorned with a beautifully carved model of the Lamb of God in the pediment above its door. Dating back to 1667, the Lamb Building stood as a testament to Stuart-era architecture until tragedy struck during World War II. On May 11th, 1941, it fell victim to devastating bombing that resulted in its complete destruction. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of both loss and destruction endured during those tumultuous times. Taken by Charles William Prickett and preserved by Historic England, this image allows us to appreciate the intricate craftsmanship and architectural beauty that once graced this iconic legal office building. While no longer standing today, its memory lives on through photographs like these. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an era when buildings were not just structures but symbols of history and culture. It is a tribute to all those who worked within its walls and a solemn reminder of how war can ravage even the most cherished landmarks.
