Birmingham Bull Ring St Martins Church
EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Birmingham in the 19th century. The image showcases two iconic landmarks - The Bull Ring and St Martins Church, standing tall amidst a sea of historic buildings. The Bull Ring, once a vibrant marketplace, is depicted with its characteristic circular shape. Crowds of people can be seen going about their daily activities, giving us a glimpse into the lively atmosphere that would have filled these streets centuries ago. Meanwhile, St Martins Church stands proudly in the background, its spire reaching towards the sky. This print is not just a beautiful piece of art but also an important historical document. It was originally created as an illustration for The Imperial Gazetteer, A General Dictionary of Geography published by Blackie around 1855. Its inclusion in this publication speaks to the significance of both The Bull Ring and St Martins Church within Birmingham's history. As we gaze upon this image today, we are reminded of how much has changed over time while also appreciating the enduring beauty and charm that still exists within these historic landmarks. This print serves as a window into Birmingham's past and invites us to reflect on our own connection to history and heritage.
