Rochester Bridge is a 1950 watercolor by Dugald Sutherland MacColl, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows a quiet harbor scene with a few boats tied up at wooden docks. The water is calm, and the buildings along the shore are simple, with some smoke rising from their roofs. The sky is light and hazy, blending into the distant hills. The artist used quick, loose brushstrokes—almost like a quick note of what they saw. The colors are muted, with blues and grays dominating the scene. Look up Dugald Sutherland MacColl to see more of his watercolor work.
