EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite copperplate engraving, created by John Thomas Smith in 1793, depicts the Monument to Richard Fishbourne Mercer, a prominent figure in 17th century London. The monument is located in the Ambulatory of Mercers' Chapel, situated in Cheapside. Mercer, who passed away in 1625, was a renowned naturalist and collector, whose extensive collection of curiosities was later acquired by the famous horticulturists, the Tradescants, John Tradescant the Elder and his son, John Tradescant the Younger. The oval portrait on the monument showcases a thoughtful and introspective Mercer, dressed in the attire of the era. The intricate architectural details of the monument, including the ornate columns, friezes, and pediments, are beautifully captured in the engraving. The monument's location in St. Mary at Lambeth Churchyard adds to its historical significance. This engraving is a reproduction of original drawings made by members of the Society of Antiquaries. The Society, founded in 1707, is dedicated to the study and preservation of the history and antiquities of London and its environs. The meticulous attention to detail and accuracy in the creation of this engraving is a testament to the Society's commitment to historical preservation and the importance they placed on recording London's rich history. The Monument to Richard Fishbourne Mercer stands as a reminder of London's past, showcasing the city's rich history of natural history and the importance of preserving historical artifacts and monuments for future generations. This engraving offers a glimpse into London's past, providing a window into the life of a remarkable individual and the era in which he lived.
