View of the Custom House and Douana of London

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a river scene with a row of buildings on the left side and ships in the water on the right. The buildings are large and white with green roofs, have multiple stories, and many windows. The river is wide with greenish water and several small boats and larger ships with multiple sails are present. Some boats have people in them. The sky above is blue with gray clouds. The scene appears to be a historical view of London, specifically showing the Custom House and Douana. The image by A. Pond, titled "View of the Custom House and Douana of London", shows a river with a large building on the left and ships on the right.
