EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "Detail of London Wall East of Smithfield from Civitas Londinium" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into Tudor London. Created by the talented artist Ralph Agas around 1561, this intricate survey map provides an invaluable historical record of the city during that era. The level of detail in this print is truly remarkable. From the aerial perspective, viewers can observe the sprawling cityscape with its winding streets and bustling neighborhoods. The topography is meticulously depicted, showcasing the contours of the land upon which London was built. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the London Wall itself, stretching eastward from Smithfield. This fortified structure served as a protective barrier for centuries and played a crucial role in shaping the development and expansion of the city. Alongside it are various city gates such as Cripplegate, Aldersgate, Newgate, and St Giles – each gate serving as an entrance to different parts of medieval London. Other notable landmarks featured include Charterhouse, Cheapside, Christchurch Greyfriars Monastery, Farringdon Field - all contributing to creating a vivid picture of Tudor life within these walls. As we admire this woodblock print today - modified in 1633 - we gain insight into how much has changed over time while also appreciating how certain elements have remained constant throughout centuries. It serves as both a testament to our rich history and an invitation to explore further into London's fascinating past.
