EDITORS COMMENTS
The Royal Exchange, London (engraving) captures the grandeur and historical significance of this iconic building. Created by Wenceslaus Hollar in the 17th century, this print showcases intricate details that transport us back to a bustling era. The image depicts a vibrant scene with people from all walks of life gathering around The Royal Exchange. The architecture is awe-inspiring, adorned with ornate carvings and statues. Angels grace the top of the building, adding an ethereal touch to its already majestic presence. The crowd below is dressed in an array of attire, reflecting the fashion trends of that time. Coats and jackets are worn to combat the winter chill while showcasing individual style. This snapshot into history allows us to appreciate how clothing played a role in self-expression even centuries ago. Weapons can be seen held by some individuals within the crowd - defensive armaments that were likely carried for protection during uncertain times. These weapons serve as a reminder of London's rich history and its constant need for defense throughout different periods. This engraving was originally published in 1644 but gained popularity through subsequent impressions such as this one from 1668. It serves as both a visual feast for art enthusiasts and a window into London's past for historians alike.
