EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "St. Georges Church from the Docks, Liverpool, c1830" captures a moment frozen in time during the 19th century. The skilled creator of this masterpiece is none other than Edward Francis Finden, an engraver renowned for his attention to detail. The image showcases the bustling quayside of Liverpool's docks, with majestic ships lining the waterfront. Towering warehouses stand as witnesses to the city's thriving shipping industry. Amidst this vibrant scene rises the magnificent spire of St George Derby Square, a symbol of Christian faith that has stood since its consecration in 1734. Liverpool's rich maritime history comes alive through this print. The River Mersey flows gracefully in the background as sailing ships navigate its waters with grace and precision. This snapshot provides a glimpse into an era when trade and transportation flourished along these shores. Sadly, time took its toll on St George's Church as dwindling congregations led to its closure and eventual demolition in 1899. However, thanks to Edward Francis Finden's artistry and skillful engraving techniques captured within this print, we can still marvel at the grandeur that once graced Liverpool's landscape. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece by William Westall under Edward Francis Finden’s guidance (not affiliated with any company), we are transported back to an age where architectural features blended harmoniously with nature’s geographical wonders. Let us cherish this visual testament to Liverpool's past - a reminder of how industry shaped our world while religion provided solace amidst bustling wharfs and warehouses.
