On the North side of London.
WHollar delin et sculp 1665 [but later]
Etching, sheet 95 x 130mm (3¾ x 5"). Trimmed.
View of London from Islington made shortly before the Great Fire of London, with the old St Paul's cathedral in the distance and three men practicing archery in the foreground. Etching by Wenceslaus Hollar (1607-77), Bohemian printmaker who spent most of his career working in England. Hollar's technical skill has ensured that his prints have always been keenly collected, and comprehensive collections of his work are at institutions in London, Berlin and Prague. Hollar's life was changed when he met Thomas Howard, second earl of Arundel, at Cologne in 1636: for eight months he travelled in Arundel's retinue at travelled with him to London, taking lodgings at Arundel House and marrying a servant of the countess of Arundel. This is one of a group of small views from north London sometimes thought to have been issued as a set.

[Tothill Fields]
[Abraham Aubry after Wenceslaus Hollar, c.1644]
Etching, sheet 90 x 165mm (3½ x 6½"). Trimmed to image and glued to backing sheet.
View across Tothill Fields towards Westminster Abbey (marked 'S. Peter in westminster'), with Parliament buildings to the right and the old St. Paul's Cathedral (destroyed by the 1666 fire) in background. Copy by Abraham Aubry of an etching by Wenceslaus Hollar (1607-77), whose etching was originally issued as part of a set of four English views (the other three were of central London and Windsor). Born in Bohemia, Hollar spent around 32 of his 52 years as a professional artist working in England. An outstanding draughtsman and topographical etcher, Hollar's work was enormously varied and has done much to inform the way that 17th century London is visualised.
