EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Trinity Almshouses, a historical landmark nestled in Mile End Road, Stepney, London. Created by renowned artist Simon Gribelin in 1696, this perspective view showcases the architectural grandeur of the almshouses alongside figures and a horse-drawn carriage. Originally established in 1695 to provide retirement homes for retired ships captains and their widows, these almshouses hold great significance in British history. The image transports us back to a bygone era when charity and support for those less fortunate were paramount. Interestingly, this photograph holds even more importance due to its connection with popular protest. In 1896, an attempt was made to demolish these cherished buildings; however, permission was ultimately refused as a result of widespread public outcry against such an act. This powerful display of community solidarity ensured that the Trinity Almshouses remained intact until today. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and nostalgia to this scene from the seventeenth century. It allows us to appreciate both the intricate details of Gribelin's engraving technique and the timeless beauty of English architecture. Preserved within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this print serves as a reminder of London's rich heritage while highlighting the enduring spirit of compassion towards those facing poverty or hardship. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported through time into an avenue lined with almshouses - symbols not only of shelter but also hope for a better future.
