EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "Detail of Charing Cross from Civitas Londinium" takes us on a journey back in time to the bustling streets of 16th century London. Created by Ralph Agas, this intricate survey map provides a fascinating glimpse into the city's urban landscape during the Tudor era. The Agas Map, as it is commonly known, was meticulously crafted around 1561 and later modified in 1633. It showcases an impressive birds-eye view of London, offering viewers a unique perspective of its topography and architectural layout. From St James Park to Charing Cross and beyond, every minute detail has been carefully captured in this remarkable piece. As we explore the print further, our eyes are drawn to various elements that bring life to this historical scene. The River Thames flows gracefully through the heart of the city while boats row along its waters, serving as vital means of transportation for both goods and people. We catch glimpses of Whitehall Palace with its Privy Stairs leading down to the riverbank and York House standing proudly nearby. Intriguingly, we also spot Eleanor Cross marking one end of Charing Cross – a significant landmark that holds great historical importance even today. This woodblock print not only serves as a valuable cartographic document but also offers us an immersive experience into London's vibrant past.
