EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Sir R. Clayton's House, Garden Front in all its grandeur. The image, taken in 1897 by an unknown creator, transports us back to the 17th century when this architectural gem stood proudly at No 8, Old Jewry in the City of London. Sir Robert Clayton, a prominent British merchant banker and politician who served as Lord Mayor of London during his illustrious career, was the esteemed owner of this remarkable residence. The photograph is sourced from "Old and New London". Volume I by Walter Thornbury, published by Cassell and Company Ltd in 1897. The picture captures not only the exquisite building itself but also offers a glimpse into its surroundings. A picturesque avenue leads up to the house while horses elegantly grace the lane nearby. This snapshot beautifully portrays both city and country elements with its combination of urban architecture against a backdrop of lush gardens. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece, we are reminded of Sir Robert Clayton's significant contributions to society as well as his refined taste for creating an enchanting living space amidst bustling London life. It serves as a testament to his legacy that continues to inspire awe even centuries later.
