"The White House at Chelsea" is a watercolor painting by the English artist Thomas Girtin, created in 1800. This work is one of Girtin's notable landscapes, exemplifying his mastery in capturing atmospheric effects and his innovative use of the medium. The painting depicts a scene along the River Thames, featuring a prominent white house that stands out against the surrounding landscape and the riverbank. Girtin's use of light and shadow, as well as his ability to convey the mood of the English weather, has been praised for its poetic quality and technical proficiency.

Thomas Girtin (1775–1802) was a contemporary of J.M.W. Turner and is often credited with helping to establish watercolor as a reputable medium for serious artistic expression in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. "The White House at Chelsea" is considered a fine example of Girtin's landscape work, which often captured the essence of the British countryside and urban scenery with a remarkable sense of space and atmosphere.

The painting is significant not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its place within the context of British art history, as it reflects the growing appreciation for naturalistic and topographical depictions of the landscape during the Romantic period. Girtin's approach to watercolor, with his broad washes and focus on tonal variation, influenced his contemporaries and later generations of artists.

"The White House at Chelsea" has been exhibited in various art galleries and has been studied for its contribution to the development of British watercolor painting. The artwork remains an important piece within Girtin's oeuvre, showcasing his ability to transform a simple architectural and natural setting into a scene of profound beauty and tranquility.
