An Arch of Westminster Bridge is an oil on canvas landscape painting by the English artist Samuel Scott, from c.

[1] [2] Westminster Bridge had been constructed between 1739 and 1750 to the design of the Swiss architect Charles Labelye.

It was only the second bridge to be built in London, and the engineering feat drew a number of artists including Canaletto and Richard Wilson.

Having initially specialised in maritime art, Scott increasingly switched to cityscapes and riverscapes in response to the commercial success of Canaletto during his time in England.

[5] Scott produced several other versions including ones in the National Gallery of Ireland[6] and the Yale Center for British Art[7]
