EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic St Brides Church, standing tall in Fleet Street, City of London, as it appeared in 1700. Designed by the renowned architect Sir Christopher Wren and completed in 1672, this magnificent church was one of his many masterpieces constructed to replace those lost during the devastating Great Fire of London. The image provides a detailed view of the west end of St Brides steeple, presenting an elevation, section, and ground plan. The intricate engravings beautifully capture the architectural brilliance that defined this era. The spire reaches towards the heavens with grace and elegance while exuding a sense of divine presence. St Brides Church holds immense historical significance as it has been a symbol of Christian faith for centuries. Its exterior radiates grandeur and serenity simultaneously, making it an iconic landmark within England's capital city. Preserved through time by William Emmett's skilled craftsmanship in this engraving from Guildhall Library and Art Gallery collection, this piece serves as a testament to British artistry and architecture during the 17th century. It allows us to appreciate not only Sir Christopher Wren's genius but also the enduring legacy he left behind. This print is a remarkable tribute to St Brides Church - an embodiment of religious devotion intertwined with artistic excellence that continues to inspire awe even today.
