EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Statue of James Hulbert, located in the square of St Peters Hospital in Southwark, London. The hospital, also known as Fishmongers Almshouses, was established by the Worshipful Company of Fishmongers in 1601 to provide shelter for those in need. The statue itself is a stunning piece of art created by Robert Easton, depicting James Hulbert who served as warden of the Fishmongers Company. After his passing in 1719, Hulbert left funds in his will for the expansion of these almshouses. The image showcases the exterior beauty of this historic building from the 18th century with its intricate architecture and charming surroundings. The monochrome effect adds a timeless quality to this photograph. Surrounded by nature's lush greenery and towering trees along Newington Butts avenue, it serves as a reminder of philanthropy and charity that has been an integral part of British society throughout history. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also tells a story about occupation and profession within England's trade industry during that era. It stands as a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence captured through John Chessell Buckler's lens.
