EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the serene and historic Courtyard of St. Thomas's Hospital in Southwark, London. Painted by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd, a renowned English artist from the 18th century, this watercolor on paper captures the essence of this architectural masterpiece. The hospital itself has a rich history, having been rebuilt between 1693 and 1709 under the patronage of Sir Robert Clayton, who served as Lord Mayor of London in 1679. The courtyard depicted here is a testament to the grandeur and elegance that was characteristic of this era. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness scenes from centuries past. Patients can be seen strolling through the courtyard, perhaps finding solace or relief within these hallowed walls. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation but also provides us with insights into social history and medical practices during that period. It is worth noting that St. Thomas's Hospital eventually relocated to Lambeth in 1871; however, its legacy lives on through pieces like these which offer glimpses into its storied past. With its intricate details and vibrant colors brought to life by Shepherd's skilled brushstrokes, this print truly encapsulates both the beauty of architecture and the importance of medicine throughout history.
