"View of Old Battersea Bridge" is a notable painting by the British artist Walter Greaves, created in the late 19th century. Greaves, who was born in 1846 and died in 1930, is often remembered for his close association with the American expatriate artist James McNeill Whistler, under whose influence he developed his artistic style. Greaves and his brother Henry served as Whistler's studio assistants and boatmen, which provided Walter with a unique perspective on the Thames and its surroundings, a recurring theme in his work.

The painting captures the old Battersea Bridge, a wooden structure that spanned the River Thames in London. This bridge, which was replaced by a modern steel bridge in 1890, was a popular subject for artists of the time, including Whistler himself. Greaves' depiction of the bridge is characterized by its atmospheric quality and attention to detail, reflecting the influence of Whistler's tonalism and the broader Aesthetic Movement.

"View of Old Battersea Bridge" is celebrated for its evocative portrayal of the Thames and its environs, capturing the interplay of light and shadow on the water and the architectural details of the bridge. The painting is imbued with a sense of nostalgia, as it documents a structure that was soon to be lost to modernization. Greaves' work provides a valuable historical record of London's changing landscape during the Victorian era.

The painting is held in the collection of the Tate Gallery in London, where it continues to be appreciated for its artistic and historical significance. Greaves' contribution to the art world, particularly his depictions of the Thames, offers insight into the urban and social transformations of 19th-century London, making "View of Old Battersea Bridge" an important piece in the study of British art history.
