Unframed Print. Condición: Very Good. Published in The Builder in 1877, A Vision of the City of London, Constructed on the Plan Left by Sir Christopher Wren offers a striking glimpse into an unrealized future. Following the devastation of the Great Fire of 1666, Wren proposed a radical redesign of the City: a network of wide boulevards, radiating avenues, and classical squares that would replace the tangled medieval street plan. Though his vision was never implemented'thwarted by entrenched property rights and the urgency of reconstruction'this map imagines what might have been. It presents a meticulously ordered cityscape, with key landmarks like St. Paul's Cathedral, the Bank of England, and the Tower of London positioned within a symmetrical, almost Parisian framework. The Thames anchors the composition, its docks and ships reinforcing London's mercantile identity. More than a technical rendering, the map is a symbolic act of Victorian retrospection, an editorial fantasy that mourns the missed opportunity for civic grandeur while celebrating Wren's architectural legacy. It reflects 19th-century ideals of order, beauty, and rational design, casting the chaotic reality of London's streets against a backdrop of imagined elegance. For the modern viewer, it serves as both a historical artifact and a narrative shell: a what-if that dramatizes the tension between visionary planning and pragmatic constraint. A double sheet print, image area approx. 27 x 39 cms. The illustrations found in leading architectural journals of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, such as The Builder, Building News, and The Architect are masterpieces of visual craftsmanship.

Very good. Minor toning and wear along original fold lines. Some foxing at places, especially in top right quadrant. Size 13.5 x 21 Inches. This is a scarce 1811 map or plan of Woolwich and vicinity, London published by T. Cadell and W. Davies. The plan is highly detailed, noting individual buildings, roads with beautifully rendered topography. It depicts the ordnance grounds around Woolwich town, including the Military Academy, Ordnance Wharf, Foot Artillery Barracks, Horse Artillery Barracks, Repository Grounds, etc. Woolwich Town is also noted. A key below the title lists the various locations marked on the map. Woolwich originally known as Woolwich Saitn Mary, was a small Kentish village in south east London before it became a military and naval town. The Royal Military Academy dates back to 1741 while the Royal Arsenal which houses the Royal Artillery Museum, dates back to 1671. Till date, the town of Woolwich remains an army base. This map was drawn by Thomas Yeakell and engraved by J. Warner. Published in 1811 by T. Cadell and W. Davies. References: OCLC: 557959609.…

Very good. Light soiling and foxing. Repaired tear in top-left corner. Size 13 x 22 Inches. A highly-detailed c. 1816 city plan of London, originally prepared by John Russell and published by James Robins and Company. This map captures London at a time of expansion and construction, with numerous new thoroughfares, bridges, and even docks illustrated. A Closer Look As indicated in the title, the map covers from the Paddington Canal (near Hyde Park) to the West India Docks near a crook in the Thames at the Isle of Dogs. The map is divided into evenly-sized blocks labeled with Roman numerals, allowing for easy location of more than 150 sites listed in an index below. These include an extensive list of churches, government offices, theaters, inns, schools, jails (goals), prisons, and squares. Additional sites, including royal palaces, cemeteries (including more than one 'Jews burying ground'), bridges, parks, gardens, hospitals, workhouses, and more, are noted on the map itself. Major landmarks such as St. Paul's Cathedral, the Tower of London, and the Houses of Parliament are prominently displayed. Historical Context This map captures late Georgian London in a time of transition, as the infrastructure (bridges, canals, docks, roads) was being built, which would allow London to absorb a massive influx of immigrants in the following decades. For example, the 'ghosting in' of Swallow Street between Oxford St. and Piccadilly refers to the demolition of Swallow Street in 1815 to create the thoroughfare of Regent Street. The Commercial Road at right was built at the start of the 19th century to establish a better connection between the East and West India Docks and the city center. Likewise, the London Docks just to the east of the Tower of London had only been completed in 1815, as had the Waterloo Bridge. Publication History and Census This map was prepared and published by James Robins. The inclusion of 'Albion Press' after Robins' name is more likely a reference to the type of iron printing press invented in the early 19th century rather than an associated publishing firm. The map is undated but is believed to be c. 1816 from the naming of the 'Waterloo or Strand Bridge' (originally known as the Strand Bridge but renamed in 1816 to commemorate the British victory at the Battle of Waterloo) and other details. The naming of Southwark Bridge as such might indicate a slightly later date, c. 1820. This map is only listed among the holdings of the British Library in the OCLC. The London Archives also holds an example. The map only occasionally comes to market. It is a later edition of a c. 1806 map which contains the subtitle 'with the proposed Improvements between the Royal Exchange and Finsbury Square,' attributed to John Russell and published by James Stratford rather than Robins. The 1806 edition appeared in David Hughson's book, London, being an accurate history and description of the British Metropolis and its neighborhoods but may have also been separately issued.

Very good. Mounted on linen. Light wear along original fold lines. Dampstaining only evident on verso. Size 20.75 x 29.75 Inches. This is an 1887 James Reynolds city map of London. Centered on the Thames, coverage embraces London from Notting Hill and West Kensington to the West India Docks and the Isle of Dogs, and from Highbury and Kentish Town to Peckham and Battersea. A grid of quarter-mile squares is superimposed over the map, illustrating distances. Omnibus and tram-car routes are shaded yellow, while railroad stations are colored pink. Streets, parks, government buildings, rail stations, palaces, and churches are all labeled. Several specific sites are identified as well, including the British Museum, the Museum of Natural History, and the Royal Horticultural Gardens. Publication History and Census This map was created and published by James Reynolds and Sons in 1887. We note three cataloged examples of the 1887 edition in OCLC which are part of the collections at the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee, Northern Michigan University, and the University of London Research Library Services Institute of Historical Research. Reynolds first issued this map in 1857 and it was updated annually to 1901, by which time Charles Smith and Sons had taken over the Reynolds firm. References: OCLC 20908292.…
