EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent St. George's Church in Esher, Surrey, as it stood in 1911. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Jamess Ogilvy, whose attention to detail brings out the grandeur of this historic Anglican church. Built during the 16th century, St. George's Church served as Esher's parish church for an impressive three centuries. Its significance was such that even Queen Victoria herself worshipped within its hallowed walls. However, with time came change, and a larger Christ Church was constructed nearby on Esher Green in 1853, eventually replacing St. George's as the primary place of worship. This photograph captures not only the architectural beauty of St. George's Church but also its historical importance to the local community and beyond. It serves as a poignant reminder of how places of worship can shape communities throughout history. Taken from "A Pilgrimage In Surrey". Volume 1 by James S. Ogilvy and published by George Routledge & Sons Limited in London back in 1914, this print offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when faith played a central role in people's lives. As we admire this stunning image today, let us reflect on the rich heritage embedded within these ancient walls and appreciate how they continue to inspire awe and reverence even after more than a century has passed since their creation.
