An Image of the Present, Illustrating the Past

by Reviewer Rob

An interesting pic from the official website for Number 10 Downing Street is posted below. It just amazes me when I see it because in it there’s so many images of tradition that has been existing there, in London, in an unbroken line for so many hundreds of years. There’s the signs of pagan Celtic and Anglo-Saxon tribal rulers, and there’s the Church of England, which we know morphed from the remnants of ancient Roman rule in the form of the Catholic Church.

The foot-messenger for this image was originally Twitter, for which they’ve got a verified account.
