EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Old Broad Street and Austin Friars, London, time of St Ignatius" takes us on a journey back in time to the era of St Ignatius Loyola. The image showcases the architectural beauty and religious significance of this historic area in London. In the foreground, we see an imposing stone church, possibly All Hallows or St Benets Church, standing tall amidst bustling streets. Its intricate design and towering presence reflect the grandeur of Roman Catholicism during that period. Adjacent to it is a majestic Augustinian monastery with its tranquil courtyard hidden from view. The scene is filled with various elements that highlight the importance of religion in society at that time. A group of Jesuits can be seen conversing near what appears to be an ambassadors' house, symbolizing their influential role within Catholicism. Nearby stands St Anthony's Hospital, serving as a reminder of the compassion and care provided by religious institutions. As our gaze follows Old Broad Street into the distance, we are greeted by other notable landmarks such as St Peter le Poor church and a magnificent public monument. These structures showcase not only remarkable architectural designs but also serve as testaments to Christian values deeply ingrained in society. Through this meticulously restored engraving by Henry William Brewer, we are transported back centuries ago to witness how faith shaped both physical landscapes and people's lives. It serves as a visual testament to the enduring power and influence of religion throughout history.
