EDITORS COMMENTS
Exterior of the Admiralty in 1731: A Glimpse into the Past This print depicts the exterior of the Admiralty building in London as it appeared in the year 1731. The image, published in the late 19th century in The Graphic, an illustrated weekly newspaper, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past. The Admiralty, located on the north side of the River Thames in Whitehall, has played a significant role in the history of Britain as the headquarters of the Royal Navy. In this print, we see the grandiose building with its impressive columns and intricate architectural details, reflecting the administrative power and influence of the British maritime empire. The scene is bustling with activity, as people go about their daily business in the background. The Ripley Building, which can be seen to the left of the Admiralty, adds to the vibrant atmosphere of the city. The print, created by an unknown artist, likely Domenico Cunego, captures the essence of London during the 18th and 19th centuries, a time of great change and expansion for the British empire. This print serves as a reminder of the rich history and architectural beauty of the Admiralty building, which continues to stand proudly in the heart of London, a testament to the country's maritime heritage and administrative prowess.
