About the Item
This superb British town landscape oil painting is by noted artist Ethelbert White. Painted circa 1940, the composition is along the river towards the bridge over the river Avon in Bradford upon Avon. The bridge replaced the broad ford over the river that gave the town its name, although the location of the original ford is not known with certainty. In the foreground, before the bridge are the wonderful reflections of the bridge and blue sky in the water. Beyond the bridge is the industrial side of Bradford with a tall red chimney remaining - Bradford was famous for its wool and cotton mills and weavers houses, the mills powered by the water from the river. The colours and detail are superb and this is an excellent example of White's work and of Bradford on Avon's history.
