Greenwich (Queen's House and Royal Naval College)

An aerial perspective over the east side of the Queen's House and part of its east colonnade towards the Queen Mary Court of the Royal Naval College, whose dome is just included on the left. The House (at this time the centre of the Royal Hospital School) has a central flagpole to the north side and, if the watercolouring here is accurate, must have been painted more ochre yellow than its more recent white. For notes regarding the date see PAF1305.
