EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative copperplate engraving, created by John Thomas Smith in 1795, depicts the tomb of the renowned royal engraver, William Woollett, situated in the churchyard of St. Pancras, Middlesex. Woollett, who passed away in 1735, was an accomplished engraver whose works graced the pages of many significant historical and literary publications of the time. The tomb, with its intricate design, is a testament to the rich history and medieval architecture of the period. The structure is dominated by a large, arched door adorned with a portcullis, a symbol of the monarchy and the Tower of London, reflecting Woollett's close association with the royal court. The tomb's south view reveals a series of intricate carvings, including a bloody tower and a drawbridge, adding to the sense of history and grandeur. This engraving is a faithful reproduction of original drawings made by members of the Society of Antiquaries, a prestigious organization dedicated to the study and preservation of history and archaeology. The meticulous attention to detail and the high-quality craftsmanship of the engraving are evident in the intricate depiction of the tomb's architectural features, such as the arch, door, and castle-like design. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when skilled craftsmen like William Woollett played a vital role in recording and preserving the history and culture of their communities. This engraving is not only a beautiful work of art but also an important historical document, providing us with valuable insights into the architectural and artistic traditions of the past.
