Rosamond's Pond in St. James's Park, circa 1758: A Glimpse into London's Past This copperplate engraving, created by John Thomas Smith in 1791, offers a glimpse into the past with its depiction of Rosamond's Pond in St. James's Park, London, as it appeared around 1758. The pond, which no longer exists today, was filled up in 1770. The image reveals a serene and picturesque scene, with the pond surrounded by lush greenery and various structures. In the foreground, the Van Dun's Almshouses can be seen, providing shelter for the poor widows of Petty France. The mural monument in the background, dedicated to Petty France's founder, Sir Thomas Petty, stands proudly. To the left, the ruins of Margaret's Church can be seen, while the Elizabethan timber-framed almshouse is depicted on the right. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of a portrait of Cornelius Dun, the founder of the Van Dun's Almshouses, which can be seen on the wall of the almshouse. This engraving is a testament to the rich history and architecture of London during the 18th century. It was created based on original drawings by members of the Society of Antiquaries, and published by J. Sewell, R. Folder, and J. Simco. The meticulous attention to detail in this engraving provides a valuable record of London's past, allowing us to appreciate the city's history and evolution over the centuries.
