Early morning, Battersea
Whistler, James McNeill, 1834-1903 · [1861]
At the left, in the foreground, a rowboat lies on the shore of the Thames, at ebb-tide. Beyond is Cadogan Pier with its barge-like landing-stage, which a steamboat is leaving. Out in the stream, there are several barges, one of them with hoisted sail. Across the river, high buildings and tall chimneys appear, under a cloudy sky; in the distance is Battersea Bridge. In the left lower corner, "Whistler."
