This linocut by Edward Bawden was used as part of a larger collage of London monuments by Bawden, for a 1952 London Transport Poster (see the photos for a write-up of the poster). As such, this is an un-numbered linocut as it was produced for the poster, the final version of which was a letterpress and lithographic print.

Edward Bawden, CBE RA (10 March 1903 – 21 November 1989) was an English painter, illustrator and graphic artist, known for his prints, book covers and posters, amongst other things. Bawden taught at the Royal College of Art, where he had been a student, worked as a commercial artist and served as a war artist in World War II. He was admired by Edward Gorey, David Gentleman and other graphic artists, and his work and career is often associated with that of his contemporary Eric Ravilious.
