EDITORS COMMENTS
The Church of Allhallows the Great in 1784, (c1872). Creator: Unknown This print takes us back to the enchanting streets of 18th century London. Standing proudly amidst a bustling avenue, we witness the grandeur of The Church of Allhallows the Great. Rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren after being ravaged by the devastating Great Fire of 1666, this architectural masterpiece became a symbol of resilience and faith. The image showcases the church's magnificent exterior, with its towering spire reaching towards the heavens. Its intricate details are beautifully captured in monochrome, emphasizing both its historical significance and timeless beauty. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we can almost hear echoes of worshipers entering through its doors and feel their devotion permeating through time. This place was not only a religious sanctuary but also an integral part of London's landscape for centuries. Sadly, as progress marched forward into the late 19th century, The Church of Allhallows met its demise when it was demolished in 1894. However, thanks to photographs like these preserved within publications such as 'Old and New London, ' we can still appreciate its splendor today. Join us on this journey back in time as we marvel at Britain's rich heritage and pay homage to those who built such remarkable structures that continue to inspire awe even centuries later.
