Sunderland Museum
River Wear at Sunderland, 1962
L S, Lowry (1887-1976) Oil painting
Lowry was much more interested in capturing the character and atmosphere of a place than accurately recording it. In this view of the Lambton Drops, for example, the railway lines in the foreground have turned into a row of huts and local landmarks have been moved around.
Purchased with the assistance of the Art Fund, 1969
