EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of 18th century London. The image showcases the magnificent north-east view of the Church of St Martin Outwich, located on Threadneedle Street in the heart of the City of London. As we gaze upon this architectural marvel, our eyes are drawn to a group of figures gathered around a water pump in the street, utilizing its precious supply. Beneath this remarkable scene lies a dedication to Robert Carter Esquire, accompanied by a detailed description and his distinguished coat of arms. This engraving not only captures the beauty and grandeur of St Martin Outwich but also pays homage to an esteemed individual who played a significant role in its history. The church itself stands as a testament to Britain's rich Christian heritage, symbolizing centuries-old traditions and religious devotion. Its presence amidst bustling city life serves as a reminder that faith can thrive even amidst urban chaos. As we explore this monochrome masterpiece further, we cannot help but appreciate how it transports us back in time. It offers us glimpses into daily life during this era - people going about their business along narrow lanes and roads while relying on essential amenities like water pumps for their everyday needs. Preserved within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this enchanting print by William Henry Toms allows us to immerse ourselves in both history and art simultaneously – capturing not just buildings or locations but also stories that shaped England's past.
