EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to a significant moment in history - the laying of the first stone at the City of London Hospital for Diseases of the Chest, located in Victoria Park. The image, created by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century, showcases the grandeur and architectural beauty of this notable institution. The hospital's foundation stone ceremony is depicted with great detail and precision. It was a momentous occasion that took place on Wednesday last, as stated in the caption. This print originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on June 28,1851. The composition highlights not only the importance of this medical facility but also its connection to Victoria Park and Hackney borough. The surrounding landscape adds a touch of tranquility to contrast with the bustling cityscape beyond. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded of how hospitals have long been pillars within our communities - places where healing and hope converge. This particular hospital specialized in treating chest diseases, serving as a beacon for those seeking medical assistance during that era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic merit and its significance within London's rich architectural heritage.
