Summary

View of Piccadilly, Manchester, from the corner of Portland Street. The statue of the Duke of Wellington dominates the left of the image: the statue faces a busy commerical street, filled with horse-drawn trams and cabs, and people striding about their business. Two porters carry substantial hampers on their shoulders.
