| Description |
Nederlands: Het is niet duidelijk waar deze plattegrond van Londen is gepubliceerd. Afgaande op het dubbelportret bovenaan de kaart, werd ze vermoedelijk pas na de troonsbestijging van stadhouder Willem III en Mary Stuart tot koning en koningin van Engeland uitgegeven. De kaart werd oorspronkelijk samengesteld door de Praagse tekenaar en graveur Wencesclaus Hollar (1607-1677). Hollar, een leerling van de beroemde Duitse graveur Mattheus Merian (1593-1650), was in verschillende Europese steden actief. Vanaf 1652 tot zijn dood woonde en werkte Hollar in Londen.; Langs boven- en onderzijde: architectuur en stadspoorten. Centraal in de bovenste kaartrand een dubbelportret van Willem III en Mary Stuart. Aan weerszijden hiervan 4 inzetten; Centraal in de onderste rand twee inzetjes met ruiterstandbeelden: THE KAT THE STOCKs MARKET [en] THE CAT CHARING CROSS. Aan weerszijden hiervan 4 inzetten met stadspoorten.
English: It is not clear where this town plan of London was published. Judging by the double portrait at the top, the map was published after the accession to the English throne by William III and Mary Stuart. The map was composed by the famous designer and engraver from Prague Wenceslaus Hollar (1607-1677). He adopted, and excelled in, a style best suited to chorography or delineation of cities. He received instructions from Mattheus Merian (1593-1650) in Frankfurt and was active in several European towns. From 1652 until his death Hollar lived and worked in London. |
