A Five PaintingGallery Tour

Travel from the River Walk to flowers, a tea table, a stone doorway and winter moonlight, at your own pace.

A stone bridge arches over the San Antonio River, where trees and riverside buildings reflect in the water.

Begin Beside the River

Follow the stone arch from bank to bank. Then look down at the reflected colors and back up to the trees. The wide scene gives the bridge room within the surrounding city.
