The history of the London 1616-1939 Mural:
We’ve reimagined London as it stood about the time the British were settling Jamestown in Her Majesty’s colony of Virginia from 1607. Our approach has been to use an architectural drawing technique in the streamlined art deco style popular in London in the decade before the start of World War II. The original view, looking at London’s skyline from the south side of the Thames, appeared as the frontispiece of “Londinum Florentissima Britanniae Urbs; Toto Orbe Celeberrimum Emporium Que” by Claes Visscher, 1616. This hand painted mural is designed to be installed above a chair rail.
