View of the Cotton's Wharf Fire, Bermondsey, London, 1861. The scene as it appeared on the morning of Monday June 24th, after burning for two days and nights. The fire is still blazing fiercely on the warehouse on the left, while of those to the right only the burnt out walls remain. The sky is filled with black smoke, and the moon appears from behind a cloud. Jets of water from firefighting teams are visible at left and right. The River Thames in the foreground is filled with ships and boats, some of which contain firemen.
