EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the south side of Fitzroy Square in London, captured in 1807 and engraved by James Peller Malcolm. The neo-classical houses, constructed with elegant Portland stone, were masterfully designed by renowned architect Robert Adam. This engraving is a part of Malcolm's remarkable collection titled "Anecdotes of the Manners and Customs of London during the 18th Century" published in 1808. Malcolm, an American-English topographer and engraver who was also a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries, meticulously drew and engraved this copperplate artwork. His attention to detail brings to life the architectural beauty that characterized London during this period. The image transports us back to a time when Fitzroy Square stood as a testament to British culture and European architecture. Its grandeur reflects both England's rich history and its place within Europe at large.
