About this painting:

This painting is the second of a series based upon memories of London's Thames River. The series began with a painting of the Oxo Tower.


Here, evening is turning to night. A reddened moon is accompanied by twinkling stars. Below are four large circles representing trees, and in front of them runs a string of lights, each of which is reflected upon the surface of the river.

 

Indeed, reflections are the key element in this painting. If you look closely at the patterns cast within the water, you will see that it is also noteworthy for its repetition of the 'flow' motif which is most obvious in 'merge'.
