The very first of Richard's works to be shown at a Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition, 1937.

- REP / PC

This is not the famous King George V Graving Dock completed in 1934, but a much older, smaller dry dock on the Itchen River side of the eastern docks in Southampton, next to the the entrance to the marina, now known as 'Ocean Village'. The dry dock has long since been filled in.
