This beautiful vintage 1800s style wall map took over three years to produce and accurately describes the capital city of London in 2012 during the reign of Queen Elizabeth II showing major streets, markets, churches, great houses, neighbourhoods and public buildings. Hand-drawn in England, this rare map is one of the few contemporary maps still made in the historical style, incorporating symbolic and traditional elements of maps used by travellers and explorers of past centuries.

In the 1800s, diplomats and merchants from around the world arrived in the ports of London and would purchase maps from pedlars. These meticulously crafted working documents also served as gifts, ornaments, and elegant tokens of remembrance for early travellers. As the city changed, so has the look of its maps - but not ours. Our current day maps have kept the same style true to the originals used in the days of Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington.

Listed as a Top 10 Best Hand Drawn Map by The Guardian, this map extends from Kensington Palace Gardens to Tower of London and makes a strong statement in any home or office.
