Description: | George IV sailed from Greenwich in London to start a short visit to Scotland in 1822. The royal barge is beside the quay in this scene. A group of raised oars mark where the rowers are sitting at the rear of the barge. The barge's decorated passenger compartment is behind them, where a soldier is keeping guard. The picture is one of Thomas Miles Richardson Senior's most outstanding watercolours. It was exhibited in Newcastle in 1826. Richardson painted only a few scenes outside his home area of the North East. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East art movement artists watercolours art North East artists buildings | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
