EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning map print, titled "A New and Correct Map of the Cities of London and Westminster, and the Borough of Southwark," was created by renowned English cartographer John Rocque in 1745. The map offers a detailed and accurate representation of London during the 1740s, showcasing the city's intricate street layout, topography, and significant landmarks. The Thames River, a vital artery of London, runs through the heart of the map, with its winding path marked by the precise placement of bridges and wharves. The city's iconic buildings, such as St. Paul's Cathedral, Westminster Abbey, and the Tower of London, are clearly depicted, providing a glimpse into London's rich history. The map also highlights the city's diverse neighborhoods, including the fashionable areas of Mayfair and Covent Garden, as well as the bustling markets and industries of Smithfield and Billingsgate. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in the inclusion of parks, churches, schools, and even individual houses. John Rocque was a pioneer in the field of topographical mapping, using the most up-to-date information and surveying techniques to create accurate and visually appealing maps. This map of London, produced in 1745, is a testament to his skill and dedication. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to explore the streets and landmarks of London as they appeared over 275 years ago.
