EDITORS COMMENTS
On the Thames" is a captivating pen and ink drawing by the renowned Scottish artist, William Leighton Leitch (1828-1891). This 19th century artwork depicts a serene scene along the River Thames in Britain. The drawing showcases a number of architectural features and spires in the background, reflecting off the calm, mirror-like surface of the river. In the foreground, a sailing barge is anchored, its sails furled and its mast still. The barge's black hull contrasts sharply with the white spires and buildings, adding depth and texture to the composition. The intricate rigging of the barge is rendered with meticulous detail, showcasing Leitch's exceptional draftsmanship. The drawing also captures the hustle and bustle of activity along the riverbank. People are visible in the background, going about their daily business, while boats and barges ply the water, adding to the sense of movement and energy. The use of pen and brown ink on ivory wove paper laid down on board adds to the drawing's richness and depth. The black and white palette enhances the contrast between the dark and light areas, creating a striking visual effect. This drawing is a testament to Leitch's mastery of the medium of pen and ink, and his ability to capture the essence of a scene with great precision and detail. It is a valuable addition to the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is housed as part of their Prints and Drawings department. The River Thames has long been a source of inspiration for artists, and Leitch's "On the Thames" is a beautiful and evocative representation of this iconic geographical feature. Whether you're an art enthusiast, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of a well-drawn image, this drawing is sure to captivate and delight.
