Description
A superbly detailed 'balloon-view' of London, taken from a point above Kennington. On the left edge are Vauxhall Bridge, Hyde Park Corner and Regent's Park; on the right the Tower and West India Docks; in the foreground Lambeth Palace and the Elephant & Castle; and on the far horizon Highgate Archway.
First published in 1843 with the title 'A Cosmogramic View...', this state was retitled with 'Panoramic' as 'Cosmoramic' had dropped from usage.
Condition:
A few small repairs, laid on archival canvas.Related products
