Framed Print of London from Southwark, c.1630
London from Southwark, c.1630. Old London Bridge is in the right foreground and old St Paul's Cathedral is the largest church to the left of centre on the skyline. This is one of the few remaining pictures showing the city before the Great Fire of 1666. Oil on panel, Dutch School, not signed or dated but technical analysis of the panel shows it to be c.1625-1655 This view of London from Southwark shows the capital around 1600. It depicts a general view of the City and is one of very few surviving paintings to do this. The artist is unknown but likely to be from the Netherlands. The image is not topgraphically accurate, as the vista has been compressed to include Whitehall on the left and the river bend on the right. The view is from the church tower of St Mary Overy (now Southwark Cathedral). Old London Bridge Is on the right of the picture. Built between 1176 and 1209, it was the first stone bridge to cross the Thames. It was surmounted, famously, by houses, shops and a chapel, and its gatehouse on the Southwark side was regularly adorned with the severed heads of traitors. The houses were removed and the bridge widened in the late 18th century. It was finally demolished in 1831. (Description based on one from the Museum of London website). © Digital Image Library
