Artwork description
Claude Monet · 1903 · the version acquired by Worcester in 1910
A gray-purple bridge blocks a choppy Thames; the factories fade under a pink sky and a few orange notes still circulate on the apron: Worcester's version is darker, more compact and more urban than that of Pittsburgh.

Look at the work
The view remains that of the Savoy Hotel, but the format is less elongated. The bridge occupies almost the entire width and stands out like a cold mass, cut by four visible arches. Boats and traffic are reduced to quick touches that cross this large dark strip.
In the foreground, the water mixes greens, grays and pinks in broken horizontal lines. On the south bank, the chimneys rise higher than in the Carnegie Museum version, but their top is lost in the fog. The large central tower becomes a vertical landmark without being drawn harshly.
This canvas makes the density of the fog felt not by a white veil added over the city, but by the progressive reduction of contrasts between the shore, the smoke and the sky.
Composition, touch and light
Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.

The dark apron advances towards the viewer. The clear arches opened in this mass give the river passages of light.
The high chimney near the center stabilizes the industrial horizon. It responds to the bridge piers without breaking the continuity of the mist.
Water keys are mostly horizontal, but their length and temperature vary. They create current and reflect changing light.
Details and visual documents
The additional images show the difficult-to-read passages in the full view and, where it exists, the actual appearance of the work at the museum.


The proper view measures 1200 × 838 px and the detail 950 × 560 px. The third image is a real photograph of the work framed at the Worcester Art Museum, in 2200 × 1611 px. All files have been converted to WebP without enlargement.
Documented benchmarks
These facts concern this precise version and are verified from the notice of the institution which keeps it.
The Worcester Art Museum purchased the work in 1910, seven years after its dating, and assigned it the inventory number 1910.37.
The exhibition Monet's Waterloo Bridge: Vision and Process brought together nine versions in Worcester to compare colors, light, atmospheric density and working methods.
The painting is an oil on canvas measuring 65.4 × 92.9 cm. Its format and inventory allow it to be distinguished from dozens of other Waterloo Bridges.
