After Thomas Hosmer Shepherd (1792-1864) 'Wyld's Monster Globe' Leicester Square, a Hand Coloured Engraving by Jean-marie Chavanne

19th century
Description

The globe was originally intended to be part of the Great Exhibition, however its size made this impossible. Instead it was a landmark in Leicester Square for 10 years, being demolished in 1861. Final image (not for sale) illustrates the interior of the building and 60 foot globe!

A copy of this rare print is held in the collection of both the V&A and Science Museum in London.

From the same series of prints entitled 'The World's Metropolis or Mighty London' and also available, is Marble Arch.

Both with giltwood and parcel- gilt frames made by Aitken Dott of Edinburgh

Size incluing frames: 32cm high x 39cm wide

Happy to post at cost price. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
