EDITORS COMMENTS
The Charterhouse Hospital, c. 1720 (engraving) captures the timeless beauty and rich history of this remarkable institution. Originally a Carthusian monastery, it was transformed by Sir Thomas Sutton in 1611 into a hospital and school that continues to serve its purpose to this day. This aerial view showcases the magnificent architecture of the Charterhouse Square in Smithfield, London. The intricate details of the buildings, with their Tudor influences and stunning courtyard gardens, are brought to life through Johannes Kip's masterful engraving. The image transports us back to the 18th century when this grand mansion stood as a testament to philanthropy and compassion. The almshouses within provided shelter for those in need, while also offering education opportunities for young scholars.

It serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy left behind by Sir Thomas Sutton and his vision for providing care and education for generations to come.
