Description |
English: Albert Bridge (?) during the Peace Pageant river procession, 4 August 1919 (Updated , May 2014) Oil painting, signed lower left, forming one of a group (BHC0649-BHC0652) previously misidentified as of the Coronation procession of June 1911. This image was also previously suggested to be Old Chelsea Bridge (not the present one which replaced it). However, the suspension system, the thinness of the towers and the arched spans between suggest it is more probably the Albert Bridge looking north, though this remains for confirmation. The picture has a dramatic receding perspective, with a brightly dressed crowd looking over both sides of the bridge, flags lining the far bank of the river, and depth added by the red foreground highlight of two Chelsea Pensioners making their way up the middle of the road onto the bridge. Army uniforms were to become the artist's main interest and, after early work like this, he spent the rest of his life researching illustrating and publishing their history. For further information on this group of paintings of the Peace Pageant see BHC0649. |
