About the Item

Title: Teddington Bridge River Thames Scene with Boat Swan and Trees Watercolour By Tony Herbert (1927-2024) Medium: Watercolor on paper, unframed Size: 7.5 inches (height) x 11.25 inches (width) Condition: good, will some signs on wear consistent with aging Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England Description: Teddington Bridge is a Grade II-listed cast iron suspension bridge that spans the River Thames in southwest London, connecting the towns of Teddington and Ham. Completed in 1889, it marks the start of the non-tidal Thames and is a favourite spot for river walks, boating, and local wildlife viewing. This evocative watercolour by British artist Tony Herbert (Frederick Anthony Herbert, 1927–2024) captures the quiet charm of the area in late summer, dated August 1983. In the foreground, a white pleasure boat rests calmly on the water, its shadow echoed in soft washes and deftly handled reflections. To the left, a single swan glides through the current, while the bridge’s delicate ironwork rises behind in a series of rhythmic verticals and arches. Trees flank both sides of the river, painted in warm greens and browns that hint at the season’s gradual change. Herbert’s style is loose yet intentional — capturing light, atmosphere, and form with a minimum of fuss. This piece is a lovely example of his observational eye and sense of place, ideal for collectors of British landscapes, Thames views, or scenes of London suburbia. A rare moment of stillness beside one of the capital’s most iconic river crossings.
