EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of St. Paul's School, one of London's prestigious public schools, as seen from its playing fields in approximately 1935. Designed by renowned architect Alfred Waterhouse and completed in 1884, this magnificent building stands tall in Hammersmith, west London. The photograph offers a glimpse into the school's rich history, which dates back to its founding in 1509. Previously located in St. Paul's Churchyard within the City of London, the school later relocated to Hammersmith before eventually settling in Barnes. Captured from a distance with impeccable precision by photographer Donald McLeish for "Wonderful London" edited by Arthur St John Adcock, this image portrays not only the architectural beauty of St. Paul's but also highlights its serene surroundings. The vast landscape surrounding the school provides an idyllic setting for students to engage both academically and athletically. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back to a time when education was valued above all else. This photo serves as a testament to Britain's commitment to providing exceptional educational institutions that have stood the test of time. With every detail meticulously preserved through this remarkable print collector piece from Heritage Images, viewers can appreciate both the historical significance and timeless elegance encapsulated within St. Paul's School at Hammersmith during its prime years in the early twentieth century.
