"View of the Thames" is a watercolor painting created by American artist Childe Hassam in 1889. The painting depicts a view of the River Thames in London, England, with several boats navigating the waters in the foreground. The buildings of the city are visible in the background, including the Houses of Parliament. The painting captures the bustling activity of the river, a common subject for Hassam who was known for his depictions of urban scenes. Hassam's Impressionistic style is evident in the loose brushstrokes and vibrant color palette. "View of the Thames" offers a glimpse into London's cityscape at the turn of the 20th century.
