About the piece
Painted in 1718, this oil on canvas by Adrien Leprieur presents a dreamlike 'imaginary' view of Westminster Bridge. The composition captures the bustling life of the river, with small figures bathing and boats navigating the water, all set against a masterfully rendered sky of soft, billowing clouds that dominates the upper half of the work.
