This painting is for sale: £190
This is the view of the floodlit church by the Marlow bridge in Buckinghamshire. It is All Saints Church, a Grade II listed Victorian structure. It was built to replace an earlier church that was subject to flooding and whose wooden tower and spire collapsed in 1831. There have been churches here since 1000 AD.
The suspension bridge designed by William Tierney Clark was opened in 1832. Clarke also designed the bigger Szechenyi Chain Bridge in Budapest.
I have painted this scene on several occasions. You can see some examples here and here
