EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Risk Book of Mr. John Janson, dating back to 1804 but captured in 1928. The photograph is taken from the renowned book "A History of Lloyd's" by Charles Wright and C. Ernest Fayle, published by Macmillan and Company Limited in London. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details of this historical artifact from the shipping industry. The handwritten text on its pages tells a story of risk assessment and insurance practices that were prevalent during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. With its monochrome aesthetic, this image transports us back in time, evoking a sense of nostalgia for an era when penmanship was valued as much as business acumen. The inked entries within this ledger reflect the meticulous record-keeping required for marine insurance at Lloyds of London. As we gaze upon this piece, we are reminded not only of John Janson's role in shaping the industry but also of countless other individuals who contributed to making Lloyds what it is today – a symbol of trustworthiness and reliability. Thanks to "The Print Collector" an unknown publisher dedicated to preserving historical artifacts like these, we can now admire this rare glimpse into our maritime past. This print serves as a testament to both artistry and literature intertwined with commerce – capturing a moment frozen in time for generations to come.
