The Bull Ring, with St Martins Church, Birmingham, 1812 (1887)

The Bull Ring, with St Martins Church, Birmingham, 1812 (1887). The Bull Ring in Birmingham began to host a market in 1154 when King Henry II granted a charter to a local landowner, Peter de Bermingham. It has been the commercial heart of the city ever since. The church was originally built in the 13th century, but was demolished and replaced by a new building in 1873 that retained the earlier tower and spire. A print from The Illustrated London News, 26th March 1887

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling Bull Ring in Birmingham, England, circa 1812. The iconic St Martins Church stands tall amidst the vibrant cityscape, its medieval origins contrasting with the modernity of horse-drawn coaches traversing the streets. Since its establishment in 1154 by King Henry II's charter to Peter de Bermingham, the Bull Ring has remained a vital hub of commerce and activity. This historic market square has witnessed centuries of trade and cultural exchange. St Martins Church itself carries a rich history. Originally built in the 13th century, it underwent reconstruction in 1873 while preserving its majestic tower and spire from earlier times. Its presence serves as a reminder of Birmingham's deep-rooted Christian heritage. The print captures not only architectural details but also glimpses into daily life during this period. People can be seen going about their business on foot or utilizing horse-drawn vehicles for transportation. With its meticulous engravings and monochrome aesthetic, this image evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era long past. It offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in Birmingham's vibrant past while appreciating how much has changed over time. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen within ink on paper, we are reminded that cities like Birmingham are shaped by their storied pasts – each building standing as a testament to generations gone by.
