[edit]
Author
I. C. Varrall; W. Clarke
Description
English: West India Import Dock

Print entitled 'West India Import Dock'. it also apparently bears the name W. Clarke, though in what capacity is not stated since the visible legend here says it was 'Drawn and engraved by I.C. Varrall [sic] for the Walks through London'. David Hughson's book of that title, published in 1817 features the picture in Vol. 2, page 376-377, Clarke was not its publisher but may have done the prints. It shows the northern basin of the West India Docks, built 1799-1802.
