EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Broad Quay, Bristol, circa 1760. Painted by the British School in the 18th century, this oil on canvas masterpiece is housed at the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK. Donated by Mr A. W. Page in 1918, it showcases a bustling scene of daily life along the quay. In this historical snapshot, we witness a vibrant cityscape filled with merchants and pedestrians going about their business. The canal serves as a vital transportation route for boats carrying goods and barrels. The architecture of the buildings lining the street adds to the charm of this picturesque view. The painting beautifully captures both the architectural details and human activity that characterized Bristol during this era. From tugboats navigating through calm waters to merchants loading their wares onto waiting vessels, every element tells a story of commerce and trade. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back to an England brimming with vitality and industry. It offers us a glimpse into an important chapter of British history while showcasing the artistic talent that flourished during that period.
