Visual description

A map to show the city of London and borough of Southwark with their suburbs rebuilt after the Great fire of London. There is a key provided for the places shown in the map. Above the map, in the centre sits Hermes, the Olympic god of speed and travellers wearing a winged helmet. On either side of him two cupids each clasp a large globe resting on several books and maps. In the bottom right-hand corner sits the river god, Father Thames. He has a beard and is bare chested. He is reclining beside the river Thames and two large fish lie in the water below him. The river Thames is also filled with many small galleons.
