Borough Market, London SE1


A drawing of the interior of Borough Market before the alterations that have been recently completed.

The roof was usefully translucent, and the open space between the market pitch cages allowed for a long enough foreground to let the watercolour run freely, and hint at reflections.

The picture relies on the strength of the contrast between the silhouetted entrance to the 'shed' set against the sunlit buildings beyond.

Watercolour on Mounting Board.
