1851 London Panorama Shows Crystal Palace, Inaccurate King's Cross

An 1851 panorama titled 'A balloon view of London (as seen from Hampstead)' offers a detailed, albeit simulated, perspective of Victorian London. Published by Banks & Co. and sold for six shillings, the artwork features the Crystal Palace and the early stages of King's Cross station, but contains historical inaccuracies.
