London Published April 12th 1818 at R. Ackermann's Repository of Arts, 101, Strand
Aquatint, platemark 430 x 530mm (17 x 21"). J. Whatman watermark 1817. Small margins.
A fine panoramic coloured view of London showing Waterloo Bridge, funded by public subscription and built to designs by the company of John Rennie (1761-1821) between 1811 and 1817. The granite bridge had nine arches, each of 120 ft span, and was 2,456 ft long, including approaches. When it opened, the bridge was christened Waterloo Bridge, in honour of Wellington’s victory over Napoleon in 1815. The bridge was replaced by the present Waterloo Bridge in 1945. This view, looking west from Somerset House Terrace, shows ceremonial boats on the Thames and Westminster Abbey prominent in the distance. Compared with other early views of the bridge, however, this print is unusual for the extent to which the bridge itself is allowed to dominate the view- other views often show the bridge from a greater distance or viewed from the middle of the river to include the surrounding buildings. After an early drawing by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd (1793-1864), younger brother of the draughtsman and watercolourist George Sidney Shepherd. Thomas Hosmer went on to become a successful and prolific provider of drawings from publishers of topographical volumes such as 'Metropolitan Improvements' (1827)- this separately-issued print is of greater quality than those later prints.

On Stone by M.A.J. Whitby. 1858. Sketched by Adm.l Sartorius.
Rare lithograph, printed on chine collé, with hand colour. 180 x 230mm (7 x 9").
An amateur view of the Waterloo Bridge, St Paul's Cathedral and the Shot Tower, by Admiral George Sartorius (1790-1883), who had witnessed the surrender of Napoleon Bonaparte aboard the Bellerophon at Rochefort. The printmaker, Mary Anne Theresa Whitby (1784-1850), was married to Captain John Whitby, flag captain for Admiral Sir William Cornwallis. They lived on the admiral's estate, Newlands: after John's death in 1806, Mary stayed on, spending much of her time with Cornwallis, who left his estate to her on his death in 1819. Being a keen amateur lithographer, Whitby established a private press at Newlands, but she is better remembered for the first successful sericulture (silk production) to England after three centuries of attempts, presenting twenty yards of damask to Queen Victoria in 1844. She performed genetic experiments on her silkworms for Charles Darwin, who published her results in his 'The Variation of Animals and Plants Under Domestication' (1868).

George Dodd, a civil engineer who worked for John Rennie (1761 - 1821), proposed to build this bridge across the Thames from a point near Somerset House. Dodd left Rennie’s firm, and after the necessary funds had been raised by public subscription, the bridge was built to Rennie’s design between 1811 and 1817. The granite bridge had nine arches, each of 120 ft span, and was 2,456 ft long, including approaches. When it opened, the bridge was christened Waterloo Bridge, in honour of Wellington’s victory over Napoleon in 1815; before its opening it was known as 'Strand Bridge'. The bridge was replaced by the present Waterloo Bridge in 1945.
