EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of Hammersmith Bridge. Taken during its construction in 1886, the image showcases both the present bridge and the temporary structure that supported it during this transformative period. Painted by Archibald Webb, this oil on canvas piece measures 44x34 cm and is currently housed at Orleans House Gallery in Twickenham, UK. The scene depicts a bustling river Thames with various vessels navigating its waters. A barge can be seen carrying building materials, while boats and a tugboat add to the lively atmosphere of activity surrounding the construction site. The painting beautifully portrays not only the physical progress of building Hammersmith Bridge but also highlights transport as an integral part of London's identity. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to a time when engineering marvels were being created along one of London's most iconic riverscapes. It serves as a reminder of human ingenuity and our ability to overcome challenges through innovation and collaboration. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic beauty captured within Webb's work. It invites us to reflect on how infrastructure projects shape our cities' landscapes while celebrating their enduring impact throughout generations.
