Begun over three stays in the capital between 1899 and 1901, the series – depicting Charing Cross Bridge, Waterloo Bridge, and the Houses of Parliament – was unveiled at a landmark show in Paris in 1904 and has never been the subject of a UK exhibition.
This major exhibition at The Courtauld Gallery will realise Monet’s unfulfilled ambition of showing this extraordinary group of paintings in London, on the banks of the Thames just 300 metres from The Savoy Hotel where many of them were created.
