Rotherhithe, portrait - Public domain portrait print

Two men of middle age, wearing caps and smoking long pipes, are seated in the corner of a balcony overlooking the Thames. Two boats with single masts, one with furled sail and the other with sail partly furled, are beached on the near shore, in front of large warehouses. Along the river stretches a row of warehouses, beyond which is seen the dome of St. Paul's. On the river, at the left, is a large brig and in the distance is other shipping. On the balcony railing, at the left, "Whistler, 1860."
