EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Moorgate in the City of London, circa 1760. The artist behind this masterpiece remains anonymous, yet their attention to detail is evident in every stroke. The architectural features are meticulously captured, showcasing an archway that stands as a testament to the grandeur of eighteenth-century Britain. The monochrome palette adds a timeless quality to the image, allowing us to imagine what life was like during this period. The buildings lining the street exude elegance and charm, reflecting the English style prevalent at that time. This engraving provides a glimpse into a bygone era when horse-drawn carriages would have passed through this very gate. Located outside Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this print serves as both a historical document and a work of art. It transports us back in time, inviting contemplation on how much has changed since then while reminding us of our shared heritage. As we gaze upon this scene from over two centuries ago, we can't help but marvel at the craftsmanship involved in creating such intricate architectural designs. This print captures not only Moorgate's physical appearance but also its spirit—a gateway between past and present—an enduring symbol of England's rich history.
