John Atkinson Grimshaw - London Bridge (1883)

 During the first half of the 1880s, Grimshaw traveled annually to London from his home in Leeds to take advantage of the market to see the local terrain. As this work demonstrates, these compositions are mainly centered around the River Thames, the heart of the bustling city, where he captures the atmospheric and distinctive moonlight. These paintings were highly regarded and led Grimshaw's friend and neighbor Whistler to remark: 'I considered myself the inventor of the night until I saw Grimmy's moonlight paintings. ' London Bridge is an example of Grimshaw's atmospheric use of color, intended to dramatize the familiarity of the River Thames.(Christie's, London - Oil on canvas, 50.6 x 76.1 cm)
