Londinum Urbs Praecipua Regni Angliae [London, the Principal City of the Kingdom of England.]

This fascinating piece, a Latin version of Pierre Aveline's view of London, offers a captivating look into the city's past, specifically during its reconstruction period following the Great Fire of 1666. Rendered in great detail but in a somewhat naive style, the copper engraving captures London's architectural transformation, while simultaneously displaying certain historical incongruities, such as the inclusion of Elizabethan theaters in Bankside. The image provides a glimpse into the vibrant life of the city, highlighting the River Thames with its numerous ships and various iconic landmarks, thus offering a unique historical perspective. This scarce work serves not only as a testament to London's resilience and ability to rebuild and flourish after disaster, but also as an intriguing artifact of artistic expression from the early 18th century.
