EDITORS COMMENTS
Old London Bridge" is a captivating and historically significant painting by the Dutch artist Claude de Jongh, created around 1630. This masterpiece is currently housed in Kenwood House, Hampstead, London, as part of the Iveagh Bequest collection, with the inventory number IBK 952. The painting depicts a bustling scene on the River Thames, with Old London Bridge in the background. The bridge, an iconic symbol of London's rich history, is shown in all its medieval grandeur, complete with houses and shops built upon it. The boats in the foreground add a sense of movement and activity to the scene, as they navigate the river under the bridge. Claude de Jongh was an active painter in the early 17th century, and this work showcases his exceptional skill in capturing the essence of a busy waterfront scene. The use of light and shadow creates depth and texture, while the intricate details of the boats and buildings bring the painting to life. Old London Bridge was the city's primary means of crossing the River Thames until the construction of the current bridge in 1831. The bridge was first built in the 12th century and underwent numerous reconstructions throughout the centuries. It was famous for its houses and shops, which were built on the arches of the bridge, providing a unique living experience for the residents. This painting is a valuable reminder of London's rich history and the importance of its waterways in shaping the city's development. The Old London Bridge may no longer exist, but through the art of Claude de Jongh, we can still appreciate its beauty and significance.
