The original Picture of London (1826)
Item
Subject
A digital image of an illustration of the British Museum and St. James' Place in London.
Description
As could be deduced by other items in this archive, Lyon lived in London for several years to do business and spend quality time with the Harts family. His brother married into that family, and they partially financed the Lyons' business. This is an illustration from one of the years that Lyon lived in London, offering an idea of what Lyon might have seen on a typical day.
