The Illustrated Plan of London and its Environs, in commemoration of The Great Exhibition of Industry of All Nations, 1851. A magnificent, highly decorative map of Victorian London. Engraved by John Rapkin and published by John Tallis in London, in 1851.

"The Illustrated Plan of London and its Environs in commemoration of The Great Exhibition of Industry of All Nations, 1851" is considered as the most attractive map of London published in 19th century. The plan is a detailed large format map of London, engraved by J. Rapkin, and surrounded by vignettes of 49 views of London landmarks, including the Crystal Palace, by other engravers. The map was published by John Tallis to commemorate the Great Exhibition in 1851, for the Illustrated World Atlas.

The Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations, or The Great Exhibition, was held from 1st May to 15th October 1851. The exhibition was the first World Fair and was organised by Henry Cole and Prince Albert, the husband of Queen Victoria. The exhibition was housed in Crystal Palace, a temporary structure in Hyde Park in a form of a giant greenhouse, constructed almost entirely from cast iron frames and glass. The Crystal Palace since became a symbol of Victorian age.

John Tallis (1817 - 1876) was an English map publisher. He was born in Midlands and with varying success run a publishing business in London from approximately 1838 to 1863. His work includes the Illustrated World Atlas, published in 1851 for the Great Exhibition, and the Illustrated News of the World and National Portrait Gallery, published later.

John Rapkin (1813 - 1899) was an English engraver. He was a son of a shoe-maker and later established a company John Rapkin & Sons. He engraved maps and town plans for John Tallis' atlas.

Perfect Blend of Comfort and Style
Size: 9, Color: Brown, Size: 9, Color: Brown
I recently purchased size 9 of these shoes, and they exceeded my expectations in every way! Here’s what I love about them: 1. Comfort: The moment I put them on, I noticed how soft and supportive they felt. The cushioning provides all-day comfort, making them perfect for long walks, workdays, or running errands. 2. Fit: The sizing is spot-on! I ordered my usual size, and they fit perfectly with no need to size up or down. There’s enough room for my toes to move without feeling too loose or tight. 3. Style: These shoes look even better in person. The design is sleek and versatile, making them easy to pair with both casual and semi-formal outfits. I’ve received several compliments already! 4. Durability: I put it on the day of purchase. After wearing them daily for a couple of days, they still look brand new. The stitching and material seem high-quality and built to last. 5. Value for Money: For the price, these shoes deliver exceptional value. You’re getting premium comfort and style without breaking the bank. Final Thoughts: If you’re looking for shoes that offer comfort, style, and durability, I highly recommend giving these a try. I’ll definitely be considering another pair in a different color soon! To conclude, I’m very happy for this purchase. Will definitely buy again.

Comfortable, Easy to Clean, and Held Up at Coachella
Size: 12, Color: White, Size: 12, Color: White
I’m really happy with this purchase. The shoes are very comfortable, and the product description is accurate. I followed the sizing recommendation based on my foot type and went one size up—they fit perfectly. I bought these for Coachella, and they definitely held up. I was on my feet all day, and they stayed comfortable the entire time. What impressed me most is how easy they were to keep clean. At the end of each day, I was able to wipe them down and maintain their whiteness without much effort. Once I got home, I gave them a deeper clean, and they honestly looked as good as new. Even the laces cleaned up easily. Now I’ve transitioned them into my regular work shoes, and they still look great. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this purchase and would definitely recommend them.
