Title: The Cities of London & Westminster, accurately copied from the table of the Camera Obscura in the Royal Observatory at Greenwich

This is a rare plate from a serie of 22 landmarks taken from Modern London, published in 1804 by Richard Phillips. This engraving is drawn by the Welsh artist Edward Pugh (the name of the artist and engraver can be found in small text under the image).

Condition: Good. A very clean copy with two vertical folding lines as issued. The right side is a bit rough from the original binding, but not touching the image.
