Glorious folding map of London with the great Regency-period improvements shaded in yellow. These include Regent's Park, Regent Street, Chelsea, Waterloo and Southwark bridges, and the future home of the University of London to the north of Russell Square.



There are 24 beautifully-engraved vignettes of the city's most important buildings in the upper and lower margins. The recently-constructed East and West India Docks, great technological marvels of the age, are given pride of place in the lower-middle.



Slip case included. Original hand-colour. Framed. [LDN7578]
