The River Ouse by Mark Braithwaite
The name "Ouse" comes from the Celtic word for water. The River Ouse bisects the city of York; Ouse Bridge is the central bridge, and spans the river in York city centre, joining Ousegate and Micklegate. This view looks down river from Ouse Bridge towards Skeldergate Bridge.
Alongside "The River in Flood from Ouse Bridge", the two prints make an interesting pair of 'before and after' the floods!
The original was painted in watercolour on paper, in 2002. Look for Lucy, M.J. Braithwaite's black cat trademark.
