EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Leadenhall Street in the City of London, circa 1821. The focal point is undoubtedly the magnificent East India House, standing tall and proud amidst a sea of figures going about their daily activities. Two individuals on horseback add an air of elegance to the scene, while another person with a horse-drawn cart adds a touch of liveliness. Above the entrance to East India House proudly hangs King George III's coat of arms, featuring symbols representing England (lion), Scotland (unicorn), and its national flowers (rose and thistle). This depiction predates 1816 when changes were made to the coat of arms. Below this regal emblem lies an allegorical scene that captures maritime themes - a sea god holding a trident and globe symbolizing power over oceans, accompanied by a sailor carrying the Union Jack flag. The grandeur and architectural beauty showcased in this engraving are truly remarkable. It provides us with a glimpse into London's rich history during the Georgian era. Preserved by Richard Jupp at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this monochrome image allows us to appreciate both the intricate details found within East India House as well as its prominent location along Leadenhall Street.
