Bridge at Blenheim Palace (recto); York Cathedral (verso) 1780 - 1832

Hubert Cornish, a British artist known for his detailed landscapes, created "Bridge at Blenheim Palace" in the late 18th or early 19th century. The watercolor depicts the iconic bridge spanning a serene body of water, with its reflection mirrored in the water below. The composition focuses on the structure, emphasizing its symmetrical design and elegant arches, with trees and a cloudy sky providing a peaceful backdrop. This detailed and delicate work is now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
