EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of Arundel House, a magnificent Tudor-era building located between the Strand and the River Thames in London. Dating back to the 17th century, this image provides a glimpse into its architectural splendor before it was demolished in 1678. Originally serving as the town house for the Bishops of Bath and Wells during medieval times, Arundel House later became home to the prestigious Royal Society. In this snapshot from 1881, we see an exterior view of Arundel House against a backdrop of a bustling cityscape. The photographer's unknown identity adds an air of mystery to this historical gem. Published in "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, and Its Places" by Edward Walford, this image offers us insight into both past occupations and architectural marvels. The composition showcases not only the impressive size but also highlights its beautiful courtyard surrounded by lush greenery. This stately home stood as a symbol of power and prestige during its time. As we admire this monochrome photograph today, we are transported back centuries ago when Arundel House played host to influential figures such as Henry Howard, who would later become Duke of Norfolk. It serves as a reminder that even though structures may disappear over time, their legacy lives on through images like these captured moments frozen in history.
