"Goring Lock" is a painting by Robert Koehler, a German-born American artist known for his contributions to the Munich School and later to American art as an influential teacher and painter. The work depicts the Goring Lock, a notable feature on the River Thames in Oxfordshire, England. Painted in the late 19th or early 20th century, this piece reflects Koehler's skill in capturing the interplay of light and atmosphere, a hallmark of his mature style.

The painting is characterized by its realistic representation of the tranquil waters, the lock structures, and the surrounding landscape. Koehler's attention to detail and his ability to render the effects of sunlight on the water showcase his technical prowess and his affinity for naturalistic scenery. The composition likely draws upon the plein air painting tradition, where artists paint outdoors to capture the essence of the landscape directly from nature.

Robert Koehler (1850-1917) studied in Hamburg and Munich before moving to the United States, where he became a significant figure in the Minneapolis art scene. He served as the director of the Minneapolis School of Fine Arts and was a central figure in the development of the arts community in the region. "Goring Lock" is one of the works that exemplify his artistic legacy, demonstrating his contribution to landscape painting and his ability to convey a sense of place through his art.

The painting is a testament to Koehler's European training and his adaptation of those techniques to the American artistic context. While "Goring Lock" may not be as widely recognized as some of Koehler's other works, it remains an important piece within his oeuvre, offering insight into his artistic range and the themes that resonated with him throughout his career. The artwork is of interest to those studying American art history, the international influence on American artists, and the evolution of landscape painting at the turn of the century.
