[Published by E. Jeffery, No 11. Pall Mall, 1807.]
Coloured stipple. Sheet 235 x 330mm (9¼ x 13"). Trimmed within plate on three sides, into inscription area at bottom, losing publication inscription, with fold.
A view of collapsed buildings around Ludgate, with St Paul's Cathedral and Bow Church wreathed in smoke behind. Unusually the inscription area is also stippled. Originally published in Thomas Pennant’s 'Some Account of London' in 1792, this example has 'Vide Pennant's London' erased from the plate bottom right.
