A crisp 1977 view across the River Thames towards the City of London skyline, with St Magnus the Martyr on the left, The Monument rising near the centre, and the NatWest Tower under construction on the right. The tower cranes and unfinished upper floors of the new skyscraper contrast sharply with the older waterfront of church towers, warehouses and lower commercial blocks that still dominated this part of the City in the 1970s. In the foreground, a small cabin cruiser cuts across the river, adding a lively everyday touch to a scene that captures London at a moment of dramatic architectural change. The result is a strong transitional view of the capital, showing the old City skyline just as the NatWest Tower was beginning to redefine it.
