Museums & Galleries - Tate Hammersmith Bridge Boat Race Day 1000 Piece Puzzle

Description

Hammersmith Bridge on Boat-race Day, by Walter Greaves circa 1862

Walter Greaves was the son of a Thames boatman and a self-taught painter. A dense crowd is assembled on Hammersmith suspension bridge to watch the annual university boat race. There were fears that the bridge was not strong enough to support the weight of heavy traffic when around 12,000 people gathered there for the event in 1870. Greaves captures the diversity of London at this time, although this work, painted in his early style, simplifies and caricatures the individuals in the crowd.
