The company held water in reservoirs in Hyde Park and Green Park and pumped water through an elaborate sysstems of canals which covered a large area of today's Pimlico. As the years marched by the water was becoming more and more contaminated and the Company installed the first Sand filtration operation to purify the water. Eventurally in the late nineteenth century the company became part of the Metropolitan Water Board. Numbered 'No.5' lower right. This was reprinted in Boydell's "A collection of one hundred views in England and Wales" in 1770. Ref: 8739

237. A Perspective View of Covent Garden. Vue de Covent Garden. Printed for Robert Wilkinson in Cornhil. & Carington Bowles in St. Paul's Church Yard, London [n.d., c.1750]. Engraving and etching with hand colour, 250 x 425mm. 9¾ x 16¾". Marginal staining. £450 View of the piazza towards St Paul's church, with the market in progress. Ref: 8755 238. Crinoline 1858. Cremorne. T.H. Guerin [in image lower right]. Published by T. Archer [damage] Mortimer Street, Regent Street. Sepia tinted lithograph with colour added by hand, sheet 345 x 435mm. 13½ x 17". Creases; tear into publication line. £180 A satire on mid 19th century female fashion set in Cremorne Gardens, once a popular pleasure gardens by the side of the River Thames in Chelsea. A woman in a huge dress descends from a carriage, the driver above ensuring that his reins are well out of the way. Crinoline was originally a stiff fabric with a weft of horse-hair and a warp of cotton or linen thread. The fabric first appeared around 1830, but by 1850 the word had come to mean a stiffened petticoat or rigid skirt-shaped structure of steel designed to support the skirts of a woman’s dress in the required shape. The crinoline was the subject of much ridicule and satire, particularly in Punch magazine. Dress reformers did not like it either — they seized upon the cage aspect of the crinoline and claimed that it effectively imprisoned women. Given that the crinoline did eventually have a maximum diameter of up to 180 centimetres (six feet), it is easy to imagine difficulties in getting through doors, in and out of carriages, and the general problems of moving in such a large structure. The second problem was the potential impropriety of the crinoline. Its lightness was a curse as well as a blessing, as a gust of wind or a knock could set it swinging and reveal the wearer's legs. Even worse, if a woman tripped or was knocked over, the crinoline would hold her skirts up. Ref: 8997 239. Crinoline 1858. Belgravia. T.H. Guerin. Del [in image lower left.] [London, T.

A woman in a huge dress rather awkwardly descends from a

carriage. Crinoline was originally a stiff fabric with a weft of horse-hair and a warp of cotton or linen thread.

Trimmed to image top and sides. £180 A satire on mid 19th century female fashion. A male passenger enjoys the view as a female carriage driver's skirt is blown upwards. Crinoline was originally a stiff fabric with a weft of horse-hair and a warp of cotton or linen thread.

John Buonarroti Papworth (1775 - 1847), architect and designer, was a thorough master of drawing perspective and classic ornament. Many of his architectural designs were exhibited at the Royal Academy yearly from 1794 to 1799. For the premises of Rudolf Ackermann, the publisher of this engraving, to whose ‘Repository of Arts and Essays’ from 1809 to 1823 he was a frequent contributor of prose and verse and of drawings, he designed a hall or reception-room, intended as a lounge for customers. In 1826 he worked on the extensive building, No. 96 Strand, at the corner

of Beaufort Buildings, now occupied by Rimmel the perfumer. His most important architectural work in London is here represented - St. Bride's Avenue, Fleet Street. This provided a clear view and a good access for the magnificent steeple of St. Bride's Church, previously screened from Fleet Street by a row of houses.

It shows a statue of Queen Anne above the portico which was abandoned on her death in 1714. St Mary-le-Strand was James Gibbs' first public building, the first of the fifty new churches built in London under the 'Commission for Building Fifty New Churches', at a cost of some £16,000. Building started in February 1715, but work was halted because of the Jacobite rebellion. Gibbs, a secret Catholic and widely believed to have Jacobite sympathies, was dismissed as Surveyor to the Commissioners for building New Churches in August 1715 but was allowed to complete the church without pay. The steeple was completed in September 1717, although the church was not consecrated for use until 1 January 1723. Gibbs complained about how the commissioners changed his plans, including the addition of the steeple, which meant Gibbs was 'obliged to spread [the church] from south to north, which makes the plan oblong, which should otherwise have been square'.

'A few steps further northward, partly hidden from the road by intervening buildings, was the old house called Rosamund's Bower. Before its demolition in 1892 it was quaintly pretty, with leaded window-panes and red-tiled roof, and was then known as Audley Cottage. It was called Rosamond's Bower first in order to perpetuate the tradition of its standing on the site of a mansion of Fair Rosamund. The earliest mention of it is in 1480, when it was valued at ten marks per annum. It belonged to Sir Michael Wharton before 1725, and when he died in that year it was divided between his co-heirs. It was the residence of Mr. Crofton Croker between 1837 and 1846, and he has written a very full account of it.'
