EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable "Antiquities from Westminster Hall" etching by John Carter, created in 1781. The artwork measures 35 cm in length and is housed at the London Metropolitan Archives, City of London. With its gothic and medieval influences, this piece transports viewers back to a bygone era. The etching beautifully captures fragments of sculptures and statues that once adorned Westminster Hall, evoking a sense of grandeur and history. Among these remnants is an intriguing depiction of Richard II, adding a regal touch to the composition. The presence of royal insignia such as the motto "Dieu et Mon Droit" along with symbols like the White Hart, crest, coat of arms, and heraldic elements further enriches this visual narrative. Through this image, we are transported into the heart of Westminster Palace's rich heritage. It serves as a poignant reminder that even fragments can hold immense historical value and provide glimpses into our past. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, we are reminded to appreciate both the artistry behind it and its significance within British culture.
