EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving titled "An Exact Delineation of the cities of London and Westminster and the suburbs" by William Faithorne. Created in 1658, during the Commonwealth era just before the devastating Great Fire, this particular copy was made in 1857 by Richard Newcourt. The image provides a fascinating glimpse into London's past with its tightly packed houses and narrow streets. The map depicts both sides of the River Thames, capturing iconic landmarks such as St Peter's Westminster, St Paul's Cathedral (before it was destroyed), and Westminster Abbey. It offers a comprehensive survey and plan of both the City of Westminster and the City of London. This historical artifact holds immense value as it allows us to visualize what life was like in London centuries ago. The intricate details captured through engraving techniques showcase how urban development had shaped these areas at that time. As we explore this print from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back to a different era where bustling streets teemed with activity. It serves as a reminder of our city's rich history and how it has evolved over time. This remarkable piece is not only visually stunning but also acts as a window into our past, allowing us to appreciate how much London has transformed since then.
