EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Old View of Birmingham from Dugdales Warwickshire," transports us back in time to the 1650s, showcasing an enchanting scene of Birmingham as it once was over 365 years ago. The image, created during the 17th century, offers a unique perspective of the Midlands town from the banks of the River Rea. At the heart of the composition lies the impressive St. Martin's Church, its tall spire reaching for the heavens, serving as a beacon for the community. The church, with its intricate architectural details, stands proudly amidst a backdrop of various buildings, each with their own distinct character and charm. The structures display a mix of timber-framed houses and stone buildings, reflecting the diverse and evolving nature of the town. Beyond the urban landscape, the rolling hills and verdant countryside of Warwickshire surround Birmingham, providing a stark contrast to the bustling town life. The River Rea, meandering through the scene, adds a sense of tranquility and serenity, as it connects the town to the natural world. This exquisite print, preserved by Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history and charm of Old Birmingham. It is a captivating reminder of the rich heritage and evolution of this vibrant Midlands town.
