EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Royal College of Physicians, a historic institution located in Warwick Lane, London. The artwork depicts the courtyard of this prestigious college, which received its royal charter from King Henry VII in 1518 and became known as the Royal College of Physicians. The building depicted here is a replacement for the original structure that was lost during the devastating Great Fire of London in 1666. Designed by Robert Hooke and opened in 1675, it stands as a testament to architectural brilliance and timeless beauty. Over time, the Royal College of Physicians moved to new premises in 1799, but this enchanting engraving captures an important chapter in its rich history.
