Old Battersea Bridge - Drawing. Public domain image.
Summary
In the middle distance, and extending across the scene, is the great wooden bridge that, until 1880, spanned the Thames at Battersea. Through the broad central span appears a barge under sail. Beyond, the riverbank, lined with buildings and trees, stretches to the remote distance. People and vehicles are crossing the bridge.
