Summary

Description
English: The cartouche from "An Actual Survey of the Hamlet of Bethan Green in the Parish of Stepney, Taken in the Year M.DCC.III" by Joel Gascoyne (c.1650-1704); this public domain work has been cropped and hand-coloured.

Gascoyne's work can often be identified from characteristic style of his cartouches, which is bold and imaginative.

In this instance his clients were the authorities of the London hamlet of Bethnal Green. The legend of the blind beggar of Bethnal Green had resonance in the area.
Date 1703; 9 November 2020.
