EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic London Stone in Cannon Street, believed to be the milestone or Milliarium of the Romans. The image, captured by John Thomas Smith and beautifully engraved on copperplate, transports us back in time to ancient England. London Stone stands as a testament to the rich history and architectural marvels that have shaped this great city. Its weathered facade tells tales of Roman conquests and British resilience throughout centuries of change. As we gaze upon this historic landmark, we are reminded of the intricate artistry and attention to detail that went into its creation. The original drawings by members of the Society of Antiquaries lend an air of authenticity to this remarkable piece. Their meticulous work allows us to appreciate every fine line and delicate stroke that brings London Stone's grandeur to life. Smith's "Antiquities of London and its Environs" serves as a valuable resource for those seeking a deeper understanding of London's past. This particular engraving captures not only the physical beauty but also the historical significance embedded within each stone. As we delve into this image, let us reflect on how our modern lives intertwine with these remnants from another era. It is through such prints that we can bridge gaps between generations, connecting our present-day experiences with those who came before us. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with a visual treasure trove - an artistic window into our collective heritage - reminding us why history continues to captivate our hearts and minds.
