Description
A scarce prospect of London showing the City in flames, with the Norman St. Paul's Cathedral dominating the centre. In the foreground, safe from the fire on the South Bank are the Globe and Swan Theatres, and the bull-baiting ring. The heads of traitors adorn the gates of London Bridge.
Gabriel Gualdo Priorato, Conte del Galeazzo, was a soldier, historian, tactician, diplomatist and military draughtsman.
