A View off Teignmouth Bridge
Widgery had a soft spot for depicting bodies of water, especially ports and docks. This image is a watercolour of a view off of the bridge that spans over the top of the Teignmouth. Here, he illustrates sailors and merchants at work on their sailboats and fishing nets, observing the activities the water has to offer.
