Shakespearean Playhouses Part 49

DELARAM, F. View of London. (In the background of an engraving, made about 1603, representing King James on horseback.)

HONDIUS, J. _London._ (A small view of the city set in the large map of "The Kingdome of Great Britaine and Ireland" printed in John Speed's _Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine_, London, 1611. The plate is dated 1610, but the inset view of London seems to have been based on an earlier view, now lost, representing the city as it was in or before 1605. Apparently the views, in the Delaram portrait of King James, and on the t.i.tle-pages of Henry Holland's _Her[Greek: o]ologia_, 1620, and Sir Richard Baker's _Chronicle_, 1643, were based also on this lost view.)

VISSCHER, C.J. _London._ (This splendid view was printed in 1616; but it was drawn several years earlier, and represents the city as it was in or before 1613.)

MERIAN, M. _London._ (In J.L. Gottfried's _Neuwe Archontologia Cosmica_, Frankfurt am Mayn, 1638. Based mainly on Visscher's View, but with additions from some other earlier view not yet identified.)

[RYTHER, A.] _The Cittie of London._ (This map, erroneously attributed to Ryther in the Catalogue of the Crace Collection, is often misdated 1604. It was made between 1630 and 1640; see _Notes and Queries_, IV Series, IX, 95; VI Series, XII, 361, 393; VII Series, III, 110, 297, 498.)

HOLLAR, W. View of London. (The View is dated 1647; Hollar was in banishment from England between the years 1643 and 1652. Excellently reproduced by The London Topographical Society, 1907.)

[? HOLLAR, W.] _London._ (In James Howell's _Londinopolis_, London, 1657. This view is a poor copy of Merian's splendid view, 1638. Though generally attributed to Hollar, it is unsigned.)

FAITHORNE, W., AND R. NEWCOURT. _An Exact Delineation of the Cities of London and Westminster, and the Suburbs Thereof._ London, 1658.

(Reproduced by The London Topographical Society, 1905.)

PORTER, T. Map of London and Westminster. (About 1660. Probably based on the earlier map, 1630-40, mistakenly ascribed to Ryther. Reproduced by The London Topographical Society, 1898.)

MOORE, J. Map of London, Westminster, and Southwark. (Drawn in 1662.

Reproduced by The London Topographical Society, 1912.)

OGILBY, J., AND W. MORGAN. _A Large and Accurate Map of the City of London, 1677._ (Reproduced by The London and Middles.e.x Archaeological Society, 1895, with Ogilby's description of the map, ent.i.tled _London Surveyed_.)

MORDEN, R., AND P. LEA. _London &c. Actually Survey'd, 1682._ (Reproduced by The London Topographical Society, 1904.)
