Hand-coloured engraving, showing the river at the top with boats and a church; and below it the double arches of the Thames Tunnel, with horses, carts and pedestrians. As such, the print must predate the opening of the Tunnel, which was never able to accommodate horses and carts. At the bottom, the legend “The Thames Tunnel”.
