y of London Maps. (_The Geographical Journal_, London, 1908, XXXI, 489, 616.) MARTIN, W. A Study of Early Map-Views of London. (_The Antiquary_, London, 1909, XLV, 337, 406. See also _Home Counties Magazine_, IX.) II VAN DEN WYNGAERDE, A. View of London, Westminster, and Southwark. (The original drawing, made about 1530, is now preserved in the Sutherland Collection in the Bodleian Library. A reproduction in three sections will be found in Besant's _London in the Time of the Tudors_.) BRAUN, G., AND F. HOGENBERGIUS. _Londinum Feracissimi Angliae Regni Metropolis._ (In _Civitates Orbis Terrarum_, Cologne, 1572. The map is based on an original, now lost, drawn between 1554 and 1558; see Alfred Marks, _The Athenaeum_, March 31, 1906.) AGAS, R. _Civitas Londinum._ (This map, executed about 1570, is based on the same original map, 1554-58, made use of by Braun and Hogenbergius, although Agas has introduced a few changes. The two earliest copies are in Guildhall, London, and in the Pepysian Library at Cambridge. The student should be warned against Vertue's reproduction, often met with. The best reproduction is that by The London Topographical Society, 1905.) NORDEN, J. _London._ (In _Speculum Britanniae, an Historical and Chorographical Description of Middlesex. By the Travaile and View of John Norden_. London, 1593. The map was engraved by Pieter Vanden Keere.) DELARAM, F. View of London. (In the background of an engraving, made about 1603, representing King James on horseback.) HONDIUS, J. _London._ (A small view of the city set in the large map of "The Kingdome of Great Britaine and Ireland" printed in John Speed's _Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine_, London, 1611. The plate is dated 1610, but the inset view of London seems to have been based on an earlier view, now lost, representing the city as it was in or before 1605. Apparently the views, in the Delaram portrait of King James, and on the title-pages of Henry Holland's _Her[Greek: o]ologia_, 1620, and Sir Richard Baker's _Chronicle_, 1643, were based also on this lost view.) VISSCHER, C.J. _London._ (This splendid view was printed in 1616; but it was drawn several years earlier, and represents the city as it was in or before 1613.) MERIAN, M. _London._ (In J.L. Gottfried's _Neuwe Archontologia Cosmica_, Frankfurt am Mayn, 1638. Based mainly on Visscher's View, but with additions from some other earlier view not yet identified.) [RYTHE
