EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "On Change - Royal Exchange, 1891" captures the essence of London's bustling financial district in the late 19th century. The artist behind this masterpiece is William Luker, who skillfully portrays the grandeur and architectural beauty of the Royal Exchange. Established by merchant Thomas Gresham in the 16th century, this iconic building served as a hub for commerce in the City of London. Luker's lens transports us back to a time when men clad in formal attire filled its interior, engaged in lively discussions about finance and trade. The glass ceiling allows natural light to flood into the space, illuminating every intricate detail of this magnificent structure. The monochrome palette adds depth and nostalgia to the image while emphasizing its historical significance. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear whispers echoing through those hallowed halls – conversations that shaped Britain's economic landscape. This photograph not only showcases Luker's artistic talent but also serves as a testament to London's rich history as an international center for commerce and culture. With each glance at this remarkable piece, we are reminded of how far our society has come since those days while appreciating the enduring legacy left behind by visionaries like Sir Thomas Gresham.
