Gordon's Statue, London is a notable watercolor painting by the Irish artist Rose Barton, who was renowned for her evocative depictions of urban scenes and landscapes in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This particular work captures the statue of General Charles George Gordon, a British Army officer and administrator, which was originally located in Trafalgar Square, London. The statue, created by the sculptor Hamo Thornycroft, was unveiled in 1888 and stood as a tribute to General Gordon's service and his tragic death during the Siege of Khartoum in 1885.

Rose Barton, born in 1856, was a prominent figure in the watercolor movement and a member of the Royal Watercolour Society. Her works often reflect a keen interest in the interplay of light and atmosphere, and Gordon's Statue, London is no exception. The painting is distinguished by its delicate brushwork and the subtle use of color, which together create a vivid sense of place and time. Barton’s ability to capture the essence of London's ever-changing weather and the bustling life of the city is evident in this piece, making it a significant example of her artistic prowess.

The painting not only serves as a historical record of the statue's original location but also offers insight into the public sentiment and the cultural landscape of London during Barton's era. The statue itself was later moved to the Victoria Embankment Gardens in 1953, but Barton's painting remains a poignant reminder of its initial prominence in one of London's most famous squares. Through her work, Barton provides a window into the past, allowing contemporary viewers to appreciate the historical and artistic context of the late 19th century.
