EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating title page of "Old Saint Pauls" by William Harrison Ainsworth, illustrated by Hablot Knight Browne, transports us to the haunting streets of 17th century London. This romantic historical novel, set amidst the devastating plague and fire that ravaged the city in 1665 and 1666 respectively, weaves a tale filled with suspense and terror. In this striking print, we witness a spine-chilling moment as Mike Macascree, the blind musician, awakens from his slumber on a death cart en route to the plague pit. As he regains consciousness, his fingers instinctively find their way to his instrument. The eerie melody that emanates from it sends shivers down the spines of Chowles and the death cart attendants who stand frozen in fear. Browne's intricate engraving skillfully captures this hair-raising scene. The dimly lit street is depicted with meticulous detail – every cobblestone seems to bear witness to London's suffering during those dark times. The expressions on the faces of these men convey sheer terror as they encounter something beyond their comprehension. This evocative image not only reflects Ainsworth's masterful storytelling but also serves as a testament to Browne's artistic prowess. Through their collaboration, they transport us back in time and immerse us in an era plagued by disease and destruction. As we gaze upon this print today, it reminds us of our resilience in times of adversity while paying homage to those who lived through such harrowing experiences centuries ago.
