EDITORS COMMENTS
Staples Inn, Holborn: A Glimpse into London's Ancient Past This exquisite copperplate engraving, created by John Thomas Smith in 1800, offers a captivating look into the rich history and architecture of Staples Inn in Holborn, London. Originally attached to Grays Inn, one of the four Inns of Court, this Tudor building stands as a testament to the city's storied past. The image reveals the inn's grand gate, adorned with intricate carvings and flanked by two statues. Beyond the gate, the ancient structure unfolds, its timber-framed facade displaying the characteristic architectural style of the period. The building's history can be traced back to the 11th century, making it one of London's most venerable structures. The Staples Inn name is believed to have originated from the medieval staple, a market where merchants could sell their wool and cloth free of customs duties. The building's association with the textile trade is further emphasized by the presence of the St. Saviour's Abbey in the background, which was founded by the Cluniacs, an order known for their involvement in the wool trade. This engraving is a result of the meticulous work of John Thomas Smith, who created it based on original drawings by members of the Society of Antiquaries. Smith's 'Antiquities of London and its Environs,' published in 1800 by J. Sewell, R. Folder, and J. Simco, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history and architecture of London during this period. As we admire the intricate details of this engraving, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of London's ancient past.
