Surgeons Hall
The Company of Surgeons moved from Surgeons Hall in Old Bailey to a site at 41 Lincolns Inn Fields in 1797. Construction of the first College building, to a design by George Dance the Younger, and James Lewis, took from 1805 to 1813. In 1833 Sir Charles Barry won the public competition to design a replacement. The library and portico of this building are all that remain today after a German incendiary bomb hit the College in 1941

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Surgeons' Hall, London: A Historical Snapshot of Britain's Oldest Surgical Society This evocative image captures the enduring legacy of Surgeons' Hall in Lincolns Inn Fields, London, a site steeped in history and innovation. Originally located in Old Bailey, the Company of Surgeons moved to this new location in 1797. The construction of the first College building, designed by George Dance the Younger and James Lewis, commenced in 1805 and was completed in 1813. In 1833, Sir Charles Barry won the public competition to design a replacement for the aging structure. Barry's design, which included a grand library and impressive portico, was completed in stages between 1847 and 1856. However, the College's rich history was not without interruption. During World War II, a German incendiary bomb hit the College in 1941, destroying much of the building. Today, the library and portico remain as the last vestiges of the historic College, standing as a testament to the past and a symbol of the field's enduring progress.
