A horizontally oriented hand-colored engraving depicts a bustling London street. Dominating the left foreground, a majestic classical building features golden-topped columns and a triangular pediment. Numerous light-skinned figures in red and yellow attire alongside horse-drawn carriages populate the cobblestone expanse. Narrowing streets lined with multi-story buildings recede toward the right background under a pale blue sky. Latin and French text identifies the scene along the bottom edge.
