Illustration of a City thoroughfare [Thames Street] from 'London: a Pilgrimage' by Blanchard Jerrold and Gustave Doré, 1872. Jerrold describes 'immense vans and drays in hopeless confusion to the stranger's eye, yet each slowly tending to its destination'. There are also 'watermen, porters, touters, fish-salesmen, sailors, draymen, costermongers, all mixed up with the crowds of passengers hurrying to and from the boats, stopped by street vendors of all descriptions, importuned by beggars, threading perilous ways between mountainous loads, fish and fruit barrow, cabs and carts...'.
