Description: | In the 19th century, people became increasingly interested in medieval buildings like the magnificent Bar Gate in Southampton. The artist has given the Gate building a wash of pink to make it stand out, whilst leaving the 18th and 19th century buildings lining the street uncoloured. People driving and strolling along the road add liveliness to the scene. The pile of trunks on the right of the picture seems to be the stock of one of the shops. Thomas Shotter Boys was greatly admired for his fine architectural watercolours. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East artists watercolours art buildings | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
