Two Bridges at Smaithwate, St Johns in the Vale - Original Painting by William Heaton Cooper R.I. (1903 - 1995) Art Materials - Metallics Hot pressedA study in architecture and contrasts, Williams serene painting depicts the new road bridge carrying the A591 towards Keswick, with the older bridge shadowed beneath it. The placid waters of St. Johns Beck are a study in the deftness of Williams expertise in painting reflections, in this case, of trees, the bridges and the slopes of Wren Crag that rises in the background.
