EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent St. Thomass Church, located in Southwark, London. Painted on watercolor paper by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd, this artwork captures the essence of this historic landmark. Originally built between 1698 and 1703 by Thomas Cartwright, St. Thomass Church served as a chapel for St. Thomass Hospital. The medieval hospital chapel was replaced with this grand structure that still stands today. The image reveals intricate architectural details such as the towering spire and ornate facade of the church. A bustling street scene unfolds beneath it, depicting carriages passing by and people going about their daily lives. What makes this church even more fascinating is its unique history within its walls. The loft area was once used to store medicinal herbs while also serving as an operating theatre for women during earlier times. After the hospital relocated to Lambeth in 1871, St. Thomass Church found new purpose as the Chapter House for Southwark Cathedral. This remarkable piece of art not only captures a stunning architectural masterpiece but also offers a glimpse into centuries-old traditions and practices associated with healthcare and worship in London's rich history.
