Ralph Hyde was one of the world’s formost authorities on moving panoramas as well as stationary panoramas, maps, peep shows and other art forms of the past. The picture to the right shows Ralph in 1984 in London. The obituary below was written by Erkki Huhtamo, a long time friend and colleague of Ralph’s who expressed the loss well when he said “There is no one to take his place; personalities like Ralph simple do not appear any longer.”
Ralph was the formost authority on his field. He lectured and wrote on London images, early town plans and prospects, publishing, among others, Printed Maps of Victorian London, 1851-1900, London As It Might Have Been (with Felix Barker; London: John Murray 1982, reprinted 1995), Getting London in Perspective (London: Barbican Art Gallery, 1983), and The Streets of London, 1880-1928: Evocative Watercolours by H.E. Tidmarsh (Colchester: Red Scorpion in association with Guildhall Library, 1993).
