EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Walliss Folded Map of the City of London and Westminster, dating back to 1799. A true masterpiece by an anonymous English School artist from the 18th century, this map is a remarkable representation of the bustling metropolis during that era. Preserved in the archives of the London Metropolitan Archives, it offers a fascinating glimpse into the city's rich history. The intricate details depicted on this map are truly awe-inspiring.

It serves as a testament to both the cartographer's skill and their deep understanding of London's urban landscape. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, our imagination takes us back in time to witness life as it once was in these vibrant streets. We can almost hear the clip-clop of horse-drawn carriages echoing through narrow alleyways while pedestrians bustle about their daily routines. Beyond its artistic value, this folded map also holds immense historical significance. It provides invaluable insights into how London evolved over centuries – capturing its growth, architectural changes, and even political boundaries.
