EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of 18th century London. The image showcases Ironmongers Hall, a magnificent building that stood proudly on Fenchurch Street during this era. With its grandeur and architectural beauty, the hall was an iconic landmark in the city. In this scene, figures can be seen going about their daily activities, adding life and movement to the picture. Horses trot gracefully alongside coaches and carts, highlighting the prevalent mode of transportation at that time. The new Ironmongers Hall by Thomas Holden is depicted here, replacing the previous Elizabethan building which served its purpose until 1748. This engraving captures both the exterior of the hall as well as its surroundings on Fenchurch Street. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece from centuries past, it transports us to a different time and place. It offers a glimpse into London's rich history as a hub for trade and commerce. The Guildhall Library and Art Gallery has preserved this valuable piece of artistry attributed to John Donowell. Let this evocative image serve as a reminder of how our cities have evolved over time while still retaining glimpses of their glorious pasts.
