EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent St Stephens Church, Walbrook in London, as it stood in 1833. The small church, designed by the renowned architect Sir Christopher Wren, was built between 1672 and 1680. Its striking baroque architecture is showcased through twelve grand columns that support a majestic dome. The image highlights the intricate details of this architectural masterpiece from the seventeenth century. The engraving showcases the church's interior with its impressive nave and archways, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. It serves as a reminder of England's rich religious history and its enduring commitment to Christianity. What makes this photograph even more significant is its connection to charity work. In 1953, Dr Chad Varah, who served as rector at St Stephens Church during that time, founded the Samaritans charity. This organization has since become an invaluable resource for those in need of emotional support. As we gaze upon this monochrome representation captured by Jackson, we are transported back in time to witness both architectural brilliance and philanthropic endeavors intertwining within one frame. It stands as a testament to human creativity and compassion throughout different centuries. This print from Heritage Images allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of St Stephens Church but also its historical significance within London's City landscape.
