Grey’s Monument is a Grade I-listed monument in the centre of Newcastle upon Tyne, England. It was built in 1838 in recognition of Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1830 to 1834. In particular, it celebrates the passing of the Great Reform Act 1832, one of Grey’s most important legislative achievements. The act reorganised the system of parliamentary constituencies and increased the number of those eligible to vote.

This dynamic painting of Greys Monument captures the scale of the monument, combined with the hustle and bustle of the people below going to work or out shopping. It has a real sense of life and energy captured in this painting.
