EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent North-west view of St Paul's Church in Shadwell, London, taken in 1825 by the talented artist Thomas Dale. The church itself was constructed in 1820 as one of the Waterloo churches, a series of religious structures funded by Parliament to commemorate Napoleon's defeat at the Battle of Waterloo. Designed by renowned architect John Walters, this architectural gem stands tall with its striking spire and elegant tower. Located in the vibrant East End neighborhood, St Paul's Church serves as a testament to British Christianity and its rich history. Its exterior exudes an air of grandeur and tranquility that is characteristic of 19th-century buildings. This monochrome image beautifully captures every intricate detail, highlighting both the craftsmanship involved and the timeless beauty that has endured over centuries. Preserved within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery archives, this photograph offers us a glimpse into England's past—a country steeped in tradition and religious heritage. It transports us back to a time when faith played an integral role in shaping communities. Thanks to Robert Blemmell Schnebbelie (R. B. Schnebbelie), we are fortunate enough to witness this remarkable piece of history through his lens. As we admire this stunning print today, let it serve as a reminder not only of our architectural legacy but also of the enduring power that religion holds within our society.
