View of London with St. Paul's in the Distance: Woman and Children with a Baby Carriage. Artist: Julius Caesar Ibbetson (British, Farnley Moor 1759-1816 Masham). Dimensions: Sheet: 8 1/16 × 11 13/16 in. (20.5 × 30 cm). Date: 1787.One of a pair, this watercolor portrays well-to-do women and children enjoying fine weather on a hill-top at Kilburn, northwest of London. Beyond the figures, cows screen a prospect punctuated by the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral, with the river in the middle distance a tributary of the Thames that runs from Hampstead, through Kilburn down to Hyde Park. In this fine early example, Ibbeston's assured handling of line combines with delicate watercolors in a way that demonstrates the influence of Paul Sandby. A keen observer of contemporary life, the artist conveys English upper class contentment just before the outbreak of the French Revolution. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
