EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Destruction of City Churches" an engraving created by the English School in the 19th century. The image, part of a private collection, depicts a somber scene that evokes both awe and sorrow. The engraving was originally published as an illustration for The Graphic on November 6,1875. It offers a poignant glimpse into the devastating destruction faced by city churches in London during that era. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported back to a time when places of worship were not spared from the ravages of urban development. The intricate details captured in this print allow us to witness firsthand the architectural grandeur and beauty that once adorned these city churches. However, it also serves as a stark reminder of their tragic fate and loss. One particular church featured prominently is St Mildreds Poultry, which stands as a symbol for all those affected by such destruction within London's bustling metropolis. Through Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, this remarkable piece has been made available for our contemplation today. As we reflect on its significance, let us remember the importance of preserving our cultural heritage and cherishing these sacred spaces that hold so much history within their walls.
