EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "On the Thames, c1876-1903" takes us back to the bustling city of London in the late 19th or early 20th century. The artist behind this masterpiece is Alfred William Rich, known for his remarkable watercolor paintings. This particular print was featured in The Studio Volume 28, a renowned publication at that time. The image showcases the vibrant life on the River Thames, which served as a vital transportation route during this era. Numerous boats and ships can be seen gracefully navigating through its waters, highlighting the importance of trade and commerce in London's history. Amongst them is an eye-catching tugboat with its distinctive funnel, symbolizing power and efficiency. In this lively scene, men are diligently working aboard these vessels while others observe from afar. Their presence adds a sense of scale and human activity to the composition. The colors captured by Rich bring out the charm of this historical moment - from vivid blues reflecting off the river to warm earth tones adorning buildings along its banks. This exquisite print not only captures a specific period but also serves as a testament to how transport shaped cities like London throughout history. It allows us to appreciate both Alfred William Rich's artistic talent and gain insight into an important aspect of urban life during that time.
