Comments on: Peta Bridle’s City Churches https://spitalfieldslife.com/2024/04/29/peta-bridles-city-churches/ In the midst of life I woke to find myself living in an old house beside Brick Lane in the East End of London Fri, 31 May 2024 01:00:04 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0 By: Carolyn Hooper https://spitalfieldslife.com/2024/04/29/peta-bridles-city-churches/#comment-1577529 Fri, 31 May 2024 01:00:04 +0000 https://spitalfieldslife.com/?p=199517#comment-1577529 Such an interesting post, gentle author. Peta’s sharing of her beautiful artwork is such good fortune to those of us who have spent time on this.

Whilst reading the notes, I dabbled back into my Legacy family tree software to see which couple married at St Andrew Undershaft in 1732. How lucky am I sitting here in Brisbane Australia being inspired.

I especially like how you have muted the background drawings to bring the main subject forwards.
Hard to choose a favourite but I think it might be the Cordwainer

(The unicorn needs some work. Maybe some time spent with the King’s horses.)
