Sir George Clausen, RA, RWS

1852-1944

A Roadblock at Night near St John's Wood

Ref: 769

Signed l.r.: G.Clausen

Watercolour over pen and ink, 25.5 by 34 cm

Following Clausen’s move to St John’s Wood in north London in 1905 he embarked on a series of Whistlerian nocturnal subjects, including views of houses at night and atmospheric depictions of the London skyline. It is likely that this unusual roadblock scene is one such London subject and dates from the latter half of the artist’s career.
