Greenwich Reach

The main subject is Greenwich Power Station, with the domes of the Royal Naval College beyond, seen from the east. The small waterfront crane on the left is probably one on Enderby's Wharf, now part of the Alcatel site, where there are also remains of equipment used to load the transatlantic cable (made at the earlier cable works there) onto the 'Great Eastern' in the 1860s. The print is signed and dated by the artist and numbered, 13/75.
