EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Survey of the Parish of St Mary, Islington" takes us back in time to 19th century England. The print showcases a meticulous map that meticulously documents all the public roads, lanes, and footpaths within the parish of St Mary in Islington, Middlesex. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported to an era where urban planning was still evolving. The intricate details captured in this engraving provide a glimpse into the development and growth of this bustling parish. Every lane and footpath is carefully depicted, allowing us to imagine the daily lives of its inhabitants as they traversed these routes. The artist's attention to detail is truly remarkable; each road seems to come alive on paper. We can almost hear the sounds of horse-drawn carriages clattering along these streets or envision pedestrians strolling leisurely through their neighborhood. This print not only serves as a visual record but also offers valuable insights into how communities were structured during that period. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people recognized the importance of mapping out their surroundings for practical purposes. Now preserved in a private collection thanks to Fine Art Finder and Bridgeman Images' collaboration with Look and Learn/Peter Jackson Collection, this engraving continues to captivate viewers with its historical significance. It stands as a testament to human curiosity about our environment and our desire for order amidst ever-changing landscapes.
