Drawings of Old London

The volume assembles measured drawings and watercolours of historic London domestic and inn architecture, each plate paired with a concise catalogue entry recording dimensions, medium, provenance and historical or anecdotal context. Many views were executed from buildings that were later altered or demolished, and the entries outline signage, rebuilding, ownership and connections to civic or literary moments. Supplementary material includes a list of illustrations, editorial notes on transcription and viewing instructions for the originals in the museum, offering both a visual record and a practical scholarly guide for students of topography and architectural antiquities.
