South View of the Bloody Tower within the Tower of London
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating copperplate engraving by John Thomas Smith, based on original drawings by members of the Society of Antiquaries. This historical image offers a detailed and evocative depiction of the Bloody Tower, a significant monument within the greater Tower of London complex. The Tower of London, a historic fortress located in central London, has a rich and complex history, serving variously as a royal palace, prison, armory, and even a menagerie. The Bloody Tower, specifically, is renowned for its association with the tragic story of the Princes in the Tower, the mysterious disappearance of Edward V and his younger brother Richard, Duke of York, in 1483. In this engraving, Smith masterfully captures the South view of the Bloody Tower, with its imposing walls and the looming presence of St. Mary-at-Hill Church in the background. The tower's name is derived from the bloody deeds that allegedly took place within its walls, including the execution of Sir Edward Wynter, a courtier, in 1685. The engraving reveals intricate details, such as the ornate bust of a figure, possibly a cherub, adorned with drapes, and the fight scene between a tiger and a moor depicted on the wall. The image also showcases the architectural beauty of the Tower, with its intricate brickwork and the contrast between the dark, foreboding structure and the lighter, more ornate elements. This image, produced by John Thomas Smith in 1798, serves as a testament to the rich history and architectural significance of the Tower of London and the Bloody Tower within it. The copperplate engraving, based on original drawings by members of the Society of Antiquaries, offers a detailed and evocative glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of intrigue, mystery, and grandeur.
