Molly Bobak has composed this composition from an elevated position likely at Lambeth Palace in South London, overlooking the Thames River. Stylistically, this vivid and expressionistic work is painted in broad brushstrokes, and a thick impasto primarily with a palette of green, grey and blue. With an emphasis on atmosphere and movement, there is no attempt to show architectural detail. However, in the distance to the left, the white dome might suggest St. Paul’s Cathedral. The bridge would be either Waterloo or Blackfriars. Interestingly, in the Molly Lamb Bobak Retrospective of 1993 , which circulated among a few museums, there is a painting reproduced only in black and white in the catalogue very similar in style also of a perspective perched in a building high above the Thames River probably the Lambeth Palace. Catalogued as “The Thames from Lambeth" and definitely of a location not far from the one offered here, that one, belonging to the University of Western Ontario. Our painting most certainly dates from the early 1960s during a period when she and her husband Bruno Bobak benefitted from various scholarships and bursaries to pursue their art overseas and made their bases primarily in London and Wales.
