EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Church of All Souls" takes us back in time to the heart of old London. The image showcases the grandeur and architectural beauty of a church that no longer stands, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. The artist behind this remarkable print is Ian Strang (1886-1952), known for his ability to capture intricate details with precision. In this particular piece, he skillfully portrays the Church of All Souls in all its glory. The composition exudes an air of tranquility as sunlight filters through stained glass windows, casting ethereal hues across the pews. Sadly, this magnificent structure has since been demolished, leaving only memories and historical records behind. Its disappearance serves as a poignant reminder of how urban landscapes constantly evolve over time. Originally featured as an illustration for E Beresford Chancellor's book "Disappearing London" in 1927, this engraving transports viewers to an era when such architectural gems dotted the cityscape. It offers us a glimpse into London's rich history while highlighting the impermanence inherent in our surroundings. Preserved within private collections today, prints like these allow us to appreciate and celebrate our cultural heritage. They serve as visual reminders that even though physical structures may disappear or change over time, their significance lives on through artistry and storytelling.
