EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1844, offering a glimpse into the interior of Rogers Bank in Clement's Lane, London. The customers at this esteemed banking-house are captured in their daily transactions, unaware that this very location had been marred by a notorious robbery. It was here that a clerk named Burgess and his accomplice Elder managed to steal an astounding sum of £8,000. The aftermath of the crime saw Burgess fleeing to America, but it was thanks to the relentless efforts of two bank officers named John and Daniel Forrester that he eventually faced justice. This engraving from "Illustrated London News" serves as both a historical record and a reminder of the resilience displayed by those who sought to uphold law and order during such turbulent times. Within these walls filled with bustling activity, we witness men and women engaged in financial matters - symbolizing Britain's growing prominence as an economic powerhouse during the 19th century. The Victorian-era attire worn by these individuals adds an air of elegance and formality to the scene. This remarkable photograph print is not only a testament to British history but also highlights how newspapers played a vital role in disseminating information about significant events like robberies. Its creator remains unknown; however, through its monochrome composition, it captures both light and shadow while preserving moments frozen in time for future generations to appreciate.
