Waterloo Bridge is a series of oil paintings by the French Impressionist artist Claude Oscar Monet (1840–1926). Created during his stays in London, the series captures the Waterloo Bridge over the River Thames, enveloped in various atmospheric conditions and times of day. Monet began the series during his first visit to London in 1899, and continued to work on the paintings until about 1904. The series exemplifies Monet's fascination with the effects of light and weather on the landscape, a hallmark of his Impressionist style.

The Waterloo Bridge series includes nearly 40 paintings, showcasing Monet's interest in seriality and his method of working on multiple canvases simultaneously. He would often move from one canvas to another as the light and weather changed. This approach allowed him to capture the transient effects of fog, sunlight, and smog, which were characteristic of the London atmosphere and particularly pronounced along the industrialized river.

Monet's depictions of Waterloo Bridge are celebrated for their innovative use of color and brushwork. He often employed a palette of blues, grays, and mauves to render the misty or smoggy conditions, while also exploring the architectural form of the bridge itself. The paintings vary from being quite defined to almost abstract, with some compositions focusing on the solidity of the bridge in clearer weather, and others dissolving the structure into a play of light, color, and reflection.

The Waterloo Bridge series is considered a significant part of Monet's oeuvre and contributes to the broader body of work he produced during his time in London, which also includes views of Charing Cross Bridge and the Houses of Parliament. These works not only reflect Monet's continuous exploration of light and atmosphere but also capture a transformative period in London's history, as the city was rapidly modernizing at the turn of the 20th century.

Today, the Waterloo Bridge paintings are held in various public and private collections around the world, and they continue to be the subject of scholarly study and popular admiration. They stand as a testament to Monet's enduring legacy as a master of Impressionism and as an innovator in the portrayal of modern urban landscapes.
