EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back to the 18th century as we witness "The Building of Westminster Bridge with an imaginary view of Westminster Abbey". Painted by Samuel Scott around 1742, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 69.8x119.3 cm and is currently housed in the Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection. The scene depicted showcases the bustling activity along the River Thames in London during a time when construction was underway on the iconic Westminster Bridge. The artist skillfully captures every detail, from the numerous boats navigating through the waterway to soldiers overseeing the progress of this monumental project. What makes this artwork particularly intriguing is its inclusion of everyday life amidst such grandeur. A soldier stands tall and vigilant, his uniform proudly displayed as he keeps watch over proceedings. Beside him stands a woman, presumably his wife, cradling their baby in her arms. This tender moment adds a touch of humanity to an otherwise monumental composition. As our eyes wander further into this imaginative view, we catch sight of Westminster Abbey rising majestically in the background – a symbol of England's rich history and cultural heritage. This remarkable print allows us to step back in time and marvel at both architectural prowess and human connection within one frame. It serves as a testament to Samuel Scott's artistic talent and offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate London's vibrant past through his masterful brushstrokes.
