* London. Aveline (Pierre), Londres, Ville Capital du Royaume D'Angleterre, à Paris chez Charpentier rue St Jacques au Coq, circa 1685, hand coloured engraved 'pre-fire' prospect of London, key plate below image, torn with loss in the upper right corner, replaced in facsimile, several repaired marginal closed tears, 345 x 525 mm, mountedQty: (1)NOTESAlthough the image shows St Pauls with a spire as well as the Globe Theatre and the old London bridge including the impaled heads of those unfortunate enough to have displeased the crown; the image was almost certainly created after the fire of 1666. The British Library copy of this print is given a date of 1665, presumably because of the lack of a dome on St Pauls, but it is unlikely that Aveline saw London prior to the Great Fire of 1666 as he was born in 1656. The artist probably plagiarised the image from Visscher as it perpetuates the error of the fictitious 'north bend in the River Thames. There is a second state of this print showing St Pauls 'post-fire' with a dome but this early state is scarce. Note the artist in the lower right corner sketching the panorama on a drawing board.
