The engraving, titled "A View of Blackfriars Bridge and St. Paul's" beautifully captures the iconic landmarks that have stood the test of time. In this scene, we are transported to the banks of the River Thames, where a rowing boat gracefully glides across its shimmering waters. A barge laden with goods floats nearby, showcasing the importance of river transport during this era. In contrast, a powerful tugboat can be seen chugging along, highlighting advancements in steam-powered technology. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly Blackfriars Bridge and St. Paul's Cathedral standing proudly in the background.
