Paul H Vigor Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 A quay in Old Sunderland, 1885, painted by Thomas Hemy. A good starting point for anyone modelling a busy Victorian shipping quay. 6 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Dava Posted August 24, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 24, 2021 John Atkinson Grimshaw was the doyen of the Victorian moonlit quayside scene. I’ve not found a railed vehicle in any of them but this view of the Aire & Calder gauge barges at Leeds Bridge is rather special. https://www.google.com/search?q=atkinson+grimshaw+prints&rlz=1C9BKJA_enGB915GB915&hl=en-GB&prmd=sinv&sxsrf=ALeKk03QikZ3b5oaEH7hi3YDViOkbptZHg:1629821652383&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjBpIzlhsryAhXFmFwKHWqGCwsQ_AUoAnoECAIQAg&biw=1024&bih=653&dpr=2#imgrc=qhwD23UKlyFK7M Dava 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Royal42 Posted August 25, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) That is another great image which shows structures and bridgework etc. It also shows how cargo is stored and carried; all good detail for background scenes.
