This lithograph, titled "London Fortifications in 1642 and 1643,1738" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the historical cityscape of London during a time of great turmoil. Created by George Vertue in the mid-18th century, this print showcases the intricate details of the fortifications that once surrounded the bustling metropolis. The aerial view depicted here allows us to appreciate the strategic layout of these defenses, which were put in place during a period known as the English Civil War. The map highlights not only the fortified walls but also provides an index of forts and streets within London's suburbs. It is fascinating to see how these structures formed a protective line around the city while maintaining crucial communication routes along its streets and even across River Thames. As we delve deeper into this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness London's resilience amidst political chaos. The order of parliament can be felt through every stroke on this litho; it serves as a testament to their determination to safeguard their beloved city. Now preserved within a private collection, this artwork offers both historians and art enthusiasts alike an opportunity to explore London's rich past from an entirely new perspective.
