Temple Bar, London, 1877. Engraving titled 'Forlorn condition of Temple Bar' showing ruinous and collapsed adjoining buildings. This incarnation of Temple Bar (the gate between the Cities of London and Westminster) was constructed by Sir Christopher Wren in 1672. It was removed in 1878 in order to widen the road. A reconstruction using much of the original stonework can now be seen at Paternoster Square. From the Mayson Beeton Collection.
