This lithograph, titled "On Change, some of the Pillars of London Finance" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th-century London. The image showcases a group of distinguished brokers who were considered the pillars of the city's financial world during that era. The scene is set in front of the iconic Royal Exchange building, where these influential figures would gather daily to conduct their business dealings. Each broker exudes an air of confidence and authority as they engage in animated conversations and exchange valuable information. Amongst them, we can spot notable names such as Mr. Freeman, Mr. Wollaston, Mr. Jourdan, and Mr. Wingate – individuals whose expertise shaped the course of finance in London at that time. Their presence symbolizes stability and reliability within this ever-changing industry.

It is evident that these men are deeply engrossed in discussions about banking practices and market trends – topics crucial for maintaining London's status as a global financial hub. This lithograph serves as a visual testament to the powerhouses behind London's finance sector during this period – individuals like Messers Rothschilds Broker and Mr. Carl Meyer who played significant roles in shaping economic history. As we gaze upon this historical print today, it reminds us how much has changed since then while honoring those who laid down strong foundations for modern-day finance in one of the world's most prominent
