Thames Barges 1890

"Thames Barges" is an etching by Scottish artist David Young Cameron, created in 1890. The print depicts a view of the River Thames, with several barges moored along the banks, under the shadow of a bridge. Cameron, known for his atmospheric and evocative depictions of cityscapes, uses a masterful use of line and tone to create a sense of depth and perspective, highlighting the industrial landscape of the Thames. This scene, captured in the artist's signature style, is characteristic of Cameron's artistic approach, which focused on capturing the essence of everyday life in urban settings.
