EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the historic St Jamess Hospital near Lewes in Sussex. The print showcases the antiquity of this old building, which is now in a state of ruination. Despite its dilapidated appearance, there is an undeniable charm that emanates from its weathered walls. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this once bustling hospital, which served as a general infirmary for medical care. Its significance in history cannot be understated, as it stood as a pillar of health and healing during its time. Through intricate lines and delicate shading techniques, the engraver transports us to another era where medicine was practiced differently. This illustration was originally featured in "Ruins and Antient Buildings, in England & Wales" by Alex Hogg in 1795. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are reminded of the enduring power of historical landmarks. St Jamess Hospital stands as a testament to resilience and serves as a reminder that even though buildings may crumble over time, their stories continue to live on through art and preservation efforts.
