EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical treasure, "A Map of Clerkenwell, City of London, 1746". Created by the talented engraver John Rocque, this piece takes us back in time to explore the intricate details of Clerkenwell and its surrounding areas. The map offers a bird's-eye view of the cityscape, allowing us to navigate through iconic landmarks such as High Holborn, Hatton Garden, West Smithfield, Barbican, Finsbury, and Newgate Street. It also highlights significant institutions like Christ's Hospital and St. Bartholomew's Hospital (affectionately known as Barts), which have stood the test of time. As we gaze at this aerial perspective captured over two centuries ago, we can't help but marvel at how much has changed since then. The bustling Fleet Market and Goswell Street are now transformed into modern urban landscapes while Aldersgate Street retains its historic charm. Charterhouse Square stands proudly amidst green spaces that have witnessed generations come and go. Grays Inn Lane winds its way through the heart of Clerkenwell with an air of timeless elegance. This remarkable engraving not only serves as a visual delight for history enthusiasts but also provides valuable insights into the evolution of one of London's oldest neighborhoods. Its presence in private collections ensures that this precious artifact is preserved for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
