On Blackfriars’ Bridge, Winter Evening

This original cityscape study by Michael Alford presents a contemporary London vista conveyed in an impressionist style. The artist imbues the evening study with a sense of bright radiance which emits from the urban lighting of the thoroughfare, creating the impression of features that illuminate the night. The scene has a misty and sombre ambience as the artist employs the impression of rain, exploring the interplay between glowing lights and the effects of water. A palette of earth tones honestly suggest the way the landscape is in it’s appearance. This piece is painted in oils on panel, hand signed by the artist and framed, ready to be displayed.
