This lithograph, titled "The West Prospect of the Town of Liverpool, as it appeared about the year 1680" takes us back in time to the bustling port city during the 17th century. The print showcases a panoramic view of Liverpool, capturing its maritime essence and historical charm. In this detailed illustration by John R. Isaac, we are transported to a bygone era where ships gracefully navigate the River Mersey. The town's key landmarks are prominently featured, including an old church with its towering spire and a picturesque garden that adds tranquility amidst the lively scene. The streets come alive with activity as merchants engage in trade at customs houses and exchange buildings. A majestic castle overlooks Everton while a beacon stands tall on the horizon, symbolizing safety for incoming vessels.
