London Foggy Embankment

St Paul's dome glows rust-red through the murk as a bowler-hatted figure stands at the Thames parapet, a steam tug and a railway engine trailing smoke into the fog below a row of crimson Victorian wharves. Worked in muted olive, slate and ember tones with a single haloed gas lamp, the piece carries all the damp hush of a London evening. The river lies flat and grey beneath it. Moody and literary - a study or library wall that wants the weather, the soot and the quiet drama of the old city at dusk.
