Description

Rare bird's-eye view of New York City, published in Leipzig.

The view shows Manhattan Island and its environs looking to the northeast. Toward the bottom, the map shows Governor's Island, Battery Park, City Hall and Park, and Broadway, working toward Midtown. Central Park appears in the distance. Brooklyn Bridge is still the only bridge in the city across the East River.

The view was published for use in German schools. While the view is unsigned, the artwork is attributed to German artist and graphic designer Mathieu Molitor (1873-1919).

Condition Description

Chromolithograph on wove paper mounted on linen, with green linen selvage. Wood dowels top and bottom.

This 1842 manuscript map by Edward W. Bridges (son of William), City Surveyor of New York, depicts the block bounded by West, Cortlandt, and Liberty Streets, part of what was then the Hudson River waterfront. Subdivided into narrow parcels and carefully measured, the lots are shaded pink and yellow to differentiate ownership and annotated with penciled numbers keyed to deeds or assessments. Filed with city authorities and later reverified in 1933, it was a working document meant for resolving disputes, tracking conveyances, and managing improvements on newly reclaimed land.

Friends of Hudson River Park - Our View of the World

This captivating bird's-eye view poster presents a highly stylized and imaginative depiction of Manhattan, looking eastward across the Atlantic Ocean. The artwork is reminiscent of the iconic New Yorker cover titled "View of the World from 9th Avenue" by Saul Steinberg, published on March 29, 1976.
