the view is looking south-west up the river thames, not then narrowed by embankments. Chiswick eyot is on the left, st nicholas church at the centre, the grand houses of chiswick mall on the right. The street still has small shops; goods are being unloaded from the riverboat. The fishing settlement of slut's hole is just behind the boat, between the river and the church. Date: 1834.
