EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the picturesque Cumberland Basin, adorned with the majestic paddle steamers St. George and George IV, as well as the Earl of Liverpool. Painted by Thomas Leeson Rowbotham in 1826, this exquisite piece captures the essence of a bygone era on paper. The tranquil waters of the Avon River gently cradle these magnificent vessels, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a time when paddle steamers ruled the waterways. The meticulous pencil and watercolor technique employed by Rowbotham adds depth and texture to this masterpiece, bringing it to life before our eyes. Bristol Museum and Art Gallery proudly houses this remarkable artwork as part of their collection. Donated by William Jerdone Braikenridge in 1908, its historical significance is undeniable. It offers us a glimpse into England's rich maritime heritage and serves as a testament to Bristol's importance as a bustling port city during that period. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, we are transported back in time to witness an era where tugboats gracefully maneuvered through calm waters while passengers marveled at their surroundings from aboard these grand vessels. This painting truly encapsulates the beauty and elegance that once graced Cumberland Basin – an enduring reminder of Britain's proud seafaring past.
