EDITORS COMMENTS

Known for his remarkable contributions to London's architectural landscape, Wren played a pivotal role in rebuilding fifty-one churches in the City of London following the devastating Great Fire of 1666. His most iconic creation was undoubtedly St Paul's Cathedral, which he reconstructed with grandeur and elegance befitting its status as a symbol of resilience and faith. Wren's genius extended beyond religious structures; he also constructed the Royal Hospital at Greenwich and made significant additions to Hampton Court Palace. This portrait captures him in all his glory, donning a wig that was fashionable during the seventeenth century. With an air of confidence and authority, Wren personifies professionalism and expertise. The Print Collector has masterfully colorized this black-and-white engraving, breathing new life into history.
