EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an original drawing of Moscow, created by W.B. Clarke in 1836 and beautifully engraved by B. Davies under the supervision of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. The map, published in Melville C. Branch's work "De comparative urban design," offers a fascinating glimpse into the urban layout of Moscow during that era. The intricate details of the map reveal the city's complex network of streets, canals, and landmarks. The Kremlin, Moscow's historic fortress and the official residence of the Russian president, stands proudly at the heart of the city. The Moskva River, a significant waterway that runs through Moscow, is also clearly depicted. The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge was a British organization dedicated to the dissemination of knowledge through various means, including the publication of educational materials. This map is a testament to their commitment to making geographical and urban knowledge accessible to a wider audience. The print is now part of the impressive collection at the Biblioteca de Catalunya (National Library of Catalonia) in Barcelona, Spain. Its preservation ensures that this valuable piece of historical cartography continues to inspire curiosity and fascination among scholars, urban planners, and history enthusiasts alike.
