This print titled "LONDON: UNLOADING TEA, 1867" takes us back in time to witness a bustling scene at the East India Docks. The wood engraving, created by an English artist in 1867, beautifully captures the essence of this significant moment in history. In the heart of London's docklands, we see workers diligently unloading tea-ships from the renowned East India Company.
