EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Church of St Benet Pauls Wharf in the City of London, captured by artist JW White in 1810. Designed by the legendary Sir Christopher Wren and constructed under the guidance of master mason Thomas Strong, this architectural masterpiece replaced its predecessor destroyed during the devastating Great Fire of London. Radiating a sense of timeless beauty, St Benet Pauls Wharf stands as an emblematic symbol of Christian heritage in Britain. Its elegant church tower reaches towards the heavens, serving as a beacon for worshippers and visitors alike. The vibrant colors captured in this engraving bring to life every intricate detail of its exterior. Located within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this artwork transports viewers back to a pivotal period when England was undergoing significant transformations both culturally and religiously. Notably, it is worth mentioning that St Benet Pauls Wharf holds great significance for Welsh communities residing within the city walls. Furthermore, this historic site serves as a final resting place for Inigo Jones, an esteemed figure renowned for his contributions to British architecture during the seventeenth century. As we admire this remarkable piece from JW White's lens, we are reminded not only of our rich cultural heritage but also how art can immortalize these treasures for generations to come.
