Architectural Evolution: London's Custom House and Commercial Hall, 1815
About the Item
This image shows two architectural prints from London, taken from the "Encyclopaedia Londinensis or Universal Dictionary of Arts, Sciences, and Literature," edited by John Wilkes and published in 1815.
The top print depicts the original Custom House in London, which was destroyed by fire on February 12, 1814. The scene illustrates the building's classical architecture, with dockside activity and ships nearby, indicating its function related to trade and customs.
The bottom print shows Commercial Hall on Mincing Lane, which was repurposed as a Custom House. This building is also characterized by its neoclassical architectural style, with a grand, columned façade, signifying its importance in commerce and governance.
These prints capture significant historical and architectural moments from early 19th-century London, particularly focusing on the city's commercial infrastructure.
