EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures one of the four iconic bronze lions sculpted by Sir Edwin Landseer and cast by Marocchetti, standing proudly on their granite plinths in Trafalgar Square, London. Unveiled in 1868, these lions have become synonymous with British history and culture. The image was taken in the 1940s, with the historic St. Martin-in-the-Fields church serving as a serene backdrop. Sir Edwin Landseer, a renowned British painter and sculptor, is best known for his animal portraits, particularly his depictions of lions. The lions in Trafalgar Square were originally intended to be placed at the base of the Nelson Monument, but due to their size and weight, they were instead installed in the square. The lions have since become a beloved symbol of London, attracting tourists from around the world. The lions were cast by the Italian foundry Marocchetti, which was known for its expertise in creating large-scale bronze sculptures. The intricate details of the lions' fur and muscles are evident in this photograph, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of Landseer and Marocchetti. St. Martin-in-the-Fields church, located behind the lions, has a rich history dating back to the 13th century. The church has undergone numerous renovations and restorations over the centuries, making it a fascinating piece of London's architectural history. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when these magnificent lions were new additions to Trafalgar Square, and St. Martin-in-the-Fields church stood proudly behind them. It is a reminder of the beauty and history that can be found in the heart of London.
