520 _a"An Illustrated Account of St. Bartholomew's Priory Church, Smithfield" by Normanus is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This work presents a thorough exploration of the Priory Church of St. Bartholomew, its origins, and its significance within the context of London's ecclesiastical history. It is likely aimed at an audience interested in architectural history and the development of religious sites throughout the medieval period. The book traces the foundation of the Priory by Rahere, a former minstrel turned devout monk, who, inspired by a vision, established the church around the year 1113. It details the architectural features of the church, highlights notable historical events such as Bartholomew Fair, and discusses the important role of St. Bartholomew's Hospital, which was also founded during this time for the care of the sick and needy. Through rich illustrations and engaging narrative, the account chronicles the transitions the priory underwent over centuries, including its dissolution under Henry VIII, while celebrating its lasting impact on the community and the architectural legacy that remains to this day.
