Originally produced as one of the "Several Prospects of the most noted Publick Buildings, in and about the City of London" published by John Bowles in 1724 - but here in a later impression on wove paper dating from the early nineteenth century.
Copper line engraving on paper. Engraved surface 171 x 214mm (approx. 6-3/4" x 8-1/2"). In very good and clean state. A guaranteed genuine antique print.
