This painting shows a busy city scene with a bridge full of people. The buildings are tall and close together, painted in dark blues and grays. The sky is light and blurry, while the water below reflects everything in a wavy, unclear way. The artist used loose, sketchy lines to show movement and crowding. The colors feel muted, like a rainy day in the city. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this painting in person.
