"Vauxhall Bridge" is an aquatint engraving created by the British artists Daniel Havell (1785–1826) and Robert Havell Jr. (1793–1878), who were among the prominent printmakers in the early 19th century. The artwork depicts the Vauxhall Bridge in London, which spans the River Thames between Vauxhall on the south bank and Pimlico on the north bank. The bridge, an important feat of engineering at the time, was designed by James Walker and opened in 1816 as a toll bridge, replacing a ferry service and providing a new link between the two areas.

The Havells' depiction of Vauxhall Bridge is significant as it captures the structure during the early years of its existence, offering a historical glimpse into the landscape and industrial advancements of the period. The engraving is part of a larger body of work by the Havell family, who were renowned for their detailed prints of landscapes and cityscapes, as well as for their collaboration with naturalist John James Audubon on "The Birds of America."

In the engraving, the artists pay close attention to the architectural details of the bridge, with its nine arches and the neoclassical design elements that were characteristic of the era. The scene is likely to include river traffic and the daily life of the period, providing a rich context for the bridge itself. The artwork not only serves as a visual record of the early 19th-century London infrastructure but also reflects the artistic techniques and aesthetic sensibilities of the time.

The Havells' "Vauxhall Bridge" is an important work for scholars of British art history, urban development, and the history of London's infrastructure. It remains a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of printmaking and the role of art in documenting technological progress and urban transformation.
