The Embankment, London; Der Uferdamm, London

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Lesser Ury that transports viewers to the bustling streets of early 20th century London. The artist's impressionistic style brings life and movement to the scene, capturing the essence of this vibrant capital city. In this artwork, Ury skillfully depicts a receding view of the embankment along the River Thames. A lamppost illuminates the treelined sidewalk, casting a warm glow on passersby. Women in elegant attire stroll along the pavement, their figures beautifully rendered with loose brushstrokes that convey their grace and poise. The painting exudes an atmosphere of activity and energy as people engage in physical pursuits amidst nature's embrace. The river flows calmly nearby, reflecting both the evening sky and the lights from surrounding buildings. It serves as a reminder of London's connection to water and its historical significance as a major port city. Ury's mastery lies in his ability to capture fleeting moments in time, allowing us to glimpse into this specific era through his artistic lens. With each brushstroke, he invites us to step into his world where we can almost hear footsteps echoing against cobblestones and feel ourselves becoming part of this dynamic urban landscape. This remarkable artwork not only showcases Ury's talent but also offers us a window into early 20th century London—a testament to both its beauty and its enduring allure for artists throughout history.
