EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic scene of the burning of St Anne's Church in Limehouse, East London. The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases the destructive power of fire as it engulfs this magnificent Anglican church on a somber Good Friday morning. The image portrays a chaotic and intense atmosphere with crowds gathering around to witness this tragic event unfold. The architecture of St Anne's Church is beautifully depicted, showcasing its grandeur and intricate design before being consumed by flames. This stone church stood as a public monument and testament to architectural excellence. Published in the Illustrated London News on April 6th, 1850, this engraving serves as both a historical record and a work of art capturing a significant moment in time. It reminds us of the fragility of our built environment while highlighting the resilience and strength that can emerge from such devastation. Through this photo print, we are transported back to that fateful day when St Anne's Church was reduced to ruins but left an indelible mark on history. Its legacy lives on through artistic representations like this one held within private collections such as Look and Learn / Peter Jackson Collection.
