EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent interior of the Chapel of St. John, also known as the Norman Chapel, located within the iconic Tower of London. Built in 1080, this Romanesque masterpiece stands proudly within the White Tower and has served multiple purposes throughout history. In 1801, when this exquisite watercolor by Christopher Tomkins was created, the chapel functioned as a record repository. As we delve into this image, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen in history. The symmetrical architecture and meticulous detailing captivate our senses, evoking a sense of awe and reverence for medieval craftsmanship.
