EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1820, offering a glimpse into the east end of the north crypt in St Paul's Cathedral, located in the heart of City of London. The artist has masterfully captured this architectural marvel, showcasing the crypt that houses monuments from the old cathedral devastated by the Great Fire of London. As our eyes wander through this monochrome scene, we are drawn to a remarkable detail on the left: John Donne's shrouded statue. Donne, an influential poet and preacher from the seventeenth century, is immortalized here with great reverence. His presence adds an air of solemnity and spirituality to this sacred space. The engraving was created by James Peller Malcolm, an Englishman known for his passion for preserving historical records. This artwork now finds its home at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery. Through this image, we are transported not only to a specific time period but also into a world where religion and art intertwine seamlessly. It serves as a testament to Britain's rich cultural heritage and its enduring Christian traditions.
