EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a momentous statue in the chapel of Guys Hospital. The focal point of this print is undoubtedly the imposing figure of Thomas Guy himself, standing tall amidst the grandeur of the chapel. Thomas Guy, a prominent philanthropist and founder of Guys Hospital in London, is immortalized here in all his glory. His stoic expression exudes determination and strength as he gazes into the distance, perhaps reflecting on his remarkable legacy. The intricate details captured by the English School artist are truly awe-inspiring. Every fold in Thomas Guy's clothing is meticulously etched, while his outstretched hand seems almost lifelike. This attention to detail brings an air of realism to this otherwise static medium. The chapel itself serves as a magnificent backdrop for this masterpiece. Its architectural beauty shines through with its soaring columns and ornate decorations adorning every corner. One can only imagine how breathtaking it must have been to witness such splendor firsthand. As we gaze upon this engraving from The Saturday Magazine dated August 2nd, 1834, we are transported back in time to an era where artistry met history seamlessly. It serves as a reminder not only of Thomas Guy's immense contributions but also of the enduring power that art holds in preserving our past for future generations to admire and appreciate.
