EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching, titled "Prospect of Lincolns Inn Fields, c. 1650" takes us on a journey back in time to the bustling streets of London during the Stuart era. Created by Wenceslaus Hollar, a renowned Czech artist, this print offers an exquisite glimpse into the topography and atmosphere of one of London's most iconic squares. The scene depicted showcases the grandeur and architectural beauty that characterized Lincolns Inn Fields in the 17th century. The meticulously detailed etching reveals rows of elegant buildings lining both sides of the square, with Inigo Jones' masterful designs prominently featured. As we immerse ourselves in this historical snapshot, we can almost hear the clatter of hooves as cavalry troops pass through these hallowed grounds. Lincolns Inn Fields holds great significance within British legal history as it is home to one of London's four prestigious Inns of Court. This image transports us to a time when lawyers and barristers would have strolled along these very paths, engrossed in their legal pursuits. Through Hollar's skilled handiwork, we are transported back to an era where restoration was underway after tumultuous times for England. This print serves as a testament to Hollar's talent for capturing not only physical landscapes but also historical moments frozen in time. Now preserved within a private collection and out-of-copyright due to its age, this remarkable piece allows us to appreciate both its artistic merit and its invaluable contribution to our understanding of
