The Thames below Westminster is one of the works produced by Monet when he moved to London during the Franco-Prussian War (1870-1). Monet painted the parks of central London and the River Thames.
Here he shows the misty atmosphere of the capital on a spring day, with the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Bridge in the background. They are contrasted with the jetty in the foreground casting broken shadows on the river, and the new foliage of the trees on the Embankment to the right.
