Copper engraving, 34 x 45.5 cm, engraved by Sutton Nicholls, black and white as issued, crease bottom right. Title on swallow tailed banderole. This print was issued in ‘London Described’ but like so many of the views in that volume was probably in circulation earlier; Bowles relinquished the Stocks Market address prior to 1731. The river facade and flanking blocks of the Royal Hospital are shown complete. Adams, London Illustrated, 29/45
