A pair of views of London streets with churches. One shows the Monument to the Fire of London, the church of St Magnus-the-Martyr, and Fish Street. St Magnus-the-Martyr was destroyed in the Fire of London, and rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren by 1687; the Monument was completed a decade before. Fish Street Hill was the site of the original Billingsgate Fish Market, which is why it was so named. The print is dedicated to Sir Thomas Skinner (c.1737-1806), Lord Mayor of London from 1794-95.

The other shows a view of St Paul's Cathedral, the church of St Martin-within-Ludgate and Ludgate Street, which at that time was a fashionable and dynamic area. Britain's fledgling newspaper industry was growing in Ludgate Hill, sprouting from the printers in the Cathedral churchyard. The London Coffee House, next to St Martin-within-Ludgate, was also a meeting point for Enlightenment intellectuals. The print is dedicated to Sir James Sanderson (1741-98), a banker who became Lord Mayor of London in 1792, and was made a baronet in late 1794, possibly inspiring the dedication.

Thomas Morris (c1750-c1811) was an engraver, training as a pupil under William Woollett before working on his own.

William Marlow (1740-1813) was a topographical artist. He worked in London from 1768, and made several works showing the city, joining the Society of Artists as a Fellow in 1771.
