EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite Seal of Bow Church, dating back to 1650. Created by an unknown artist, this silver seal showcases the coronetted tower of St Mary and Holy Trinity parish church in Bow, London. The image provides a glimpse into the architectural beauty that once graced the city before it was ravaged by the Great Fire of 1666. The photograph is sourced from "Old and New London, Volume I" written by Walter Thornbury and published by Cassell and Company in 1897. It serves as a testament to both England's rich religious history and its remarkable architectural heritage. Intriguingly monochrome, this image transports us back to the seventeenth century when Christianity held great significance in British society. The Seal of Bow Church symbolizes not only a place of worship but also represents a profession deeply rooted in faith. Thanks to George Walter Thornbury's meticulous documentation, we are able to appreciate this stunning piece of history preserved through time. As we gaze upon this print today, it reminds us of our country's cultural legacy while evoking a sense of reverence for those who came before us.
