EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a copy of the inscription from the first stone of the City of London School, dating back to 1835. The artist responsible for this anonymous work remains unknown, but their attention to detail is evident in capturing every letter and symbol on the stone. The City of London School holds great historical significance as an educational institution in England. Located within the Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, it has been a pillar of education for centuries. This photograph allows us to glimpse into its early beginnings. The monochrome aesthetic adds a sense of timelessness to this image, transporting us back to 19th century Britain. The photo mechanical process used here further enhances its vintage charm. As we examine this inscription closely, we can appreciate how it represents not only the school's establishment but also reflects upon British history and culture during that era. It serves as a testament to England's commitment towards education and highlights the importance placed on knowledge by both society and government. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it encapsulates an important moment in history when education was being prioritized in our country. Its presence reminds us of how far we have come while honoring those who laid the foundation for future generations at the City of London School.
