EDITORS COMMENTS
This steel engraving captures the grandeur of the New St. Thomas's Hospital, which was inaugurated by Queen Victoria herself on a memorable Wednesday in 1871. The print, created by the talented artist John Sulman, measures an impressive 33.9x50.2 cm and is now proudly displayed at the Florence Nightingale Museum in London. The image showcases an elevated view of this architectural marvel, situated near Westminster Bridge and overlooking the majestic River Thames. The Houses of Parliament stand tall in the background, adding to the historical significance of this scene. The meticulous detail captured in this engraving allows us to appreciate not only the stunning beauty of St. Thomas's Hospital but also its strategic layout and design elements. The pavilions are arranged flawlessly within its ground plan, emphasizing both functionality and aesthetics. One cannot help but notice Big Ben standing proudly nearby as a symbol of timekeeping precision amidst such magnificence. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to both public health advancements and architectural brilliance during that era. It transports us back to a time when hospitals were not just places for healing but also structures that inspired awe and admiration. As we gaze upon this extraordinary print, we are reminded of how far we have come in our pursuit of better healthcare facilities while appreciating the rich history that has paved our way forward.
