Bone, Muirhead, Sir, 1876-1953 · 1905
The tall buildings which give the plate its name extend in an irregular and broken line on the farther side of a sheet of water to the left. Near the middle, but somewhat to the right, is a square church tower with high pinnacles. A man sits at the end of a barge moored alongside of the quay in the foreground. The church tower is unfinished and much lower than in the published states. Instead of an open vista with warehouses receding to the distance, the composition is closed on the left by a shed with four gables jutting out from the side of the plate.
