EDITORS COMMENTS
A Misty Morning at Greenwich Power Station, circa 1915 This evocative painting captures the mystical allure of Greenwich Power Station as it stands proudly along the banks of the River Thames in southeast London. Dating back to 1902, the power station was a testament to the industrial prowess of the era, supplying electricity to the growing city. The scene is set against the backdrop of a misty morning, with the ethereal fog enveloping the station and the surrounding waters, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and serenity. A lone boat, its sails billowing gently in the breeze, travels nearby, adding a sense of movement and life to the otherwise still and quiet tableau. The colors in this painting are muted and soft, with the gray tones of the mist contrasting beautifully against the dark, imposing structure of the power station. The reflection of the building in the calm waters of the Thames further emphasizes its grandeur and scale. This painting, a treasure from the March of the Women Collection, is a rare glimpse into the past, offering us a glimpse into the history and character of Greenwich and its iconic power station. Publication Details: This painting is featured in the November volume of a color magazine, published circa 1915. The artist of this work is not identified, but the painting is attributed to John Riddle, a prolific painter of the early 20th century known for his landscapes and maritime scenes. The painting is available for licensing and reproduction through Mary Evans Picture Library, a leading provider of historical images and prints.
