EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Buckingham House in 1827, before it was transformed into the iconic Buckingham Palace we know today. The palace is seen from St James's Park, still surrounded by a very natural landscape complete with grazing cows - a far cry from the bustling cityscape that now surrounds it. This historical image offers a glimpse into the royal residence's past, showcasing its humble beginnings before becoming one of the most famous landmarks in England.
The absence of Marble Arch, which stood before Buckingham House from 1827 to 1851, allows us to appreciate the grandeur of the building in its original state. The arch's later erection serves as a reminder of how architecture and landscapes evolve over time.
As we gaze upon this snapshot of history, we are transported back to a simpler era when Buckingham House was just another stately home among many in London. It is fascinating to see how much has changed since then and yet how much has remained constant in this ever-evolving city.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this piece of history for us to admire and reflect upon. Through their prints online, we can continue to explore and appreciate our rich cultural heritage captured through stunning images like this one.
