The etching portrays a scene from Charing Cross, a bustling area in central London known for its shops, theaters, and historical significance. Pennell's choice of subject matter reflects his fascination with the vibrancy and dynamism of city life. The composition is characterized by its intricate detailing and the play of light and shadow, which effectively conveys the wet, reflective surfaces typical of a rainy night.

This work is part of a larger body of Pennell's oeuvre that focuses on urban environments, showcasing his keen observational skills and his ability to translate the hustle and bustle of city life into compelling visual narratives.
