William Sr Sherlock

William Sr Sherlock is a Rococo painting artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

London-based watercolor artist William Sr. Sherlock painted 18th-century Thames views. His The Thames, showing Somerset House in the course of construction (around 1785) captures cranes and stonework on a busy riverside. The sheet shows the era’s topographical style: careful linework over pale washes, buildings framed by boats and barges. Tap the Thames itself to slide into more cityscapes from the same year.
