London and its Environs in the Nineteenth Century is a topographical book of engraved street and building views published in London in 1829 by Jones & Co., with drawings by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd and text by James Elmes. The plates are aimed at a general collector of city views. The four pictures show Georgian London streets, a stone-arched gateway, a hackney carriage and a long classical façade, rendered in fine stipple-like line engraving with soft grey tones that suggest careful architectural perspective.
