Image description

This view shows the very early stages of the building of the Tyne Bridge on the Gateshead bank. Cranes are surrounded by the rubble of demolished houses. Claude Muncaster's style of flat blocks of subdued colour was popular in the 1920s. Textured paper creates small variations in the colour. Muncaster was a painter of landscape and sea views, who was based in the south of England. He was also a sailor, and may have visited the Tyne during a ship stopover.
