London (CNN) -- A Claude Monet pastel drawing of London's Waterloo Bridge has gone on display in the Savoy hotel room where it was created 110 years ago. Monet drew the bridge across the Thames during a stay in room 618 at the hotel -- now known as the Monet Suite -- in January 1901. He had intended to paint the view from his balcony in oils, but his art supplies and canvases were delayed on their way from his home in France. On Monday, the picture -- one of 26 pastel views of the river created by the impressionist -- returned, albeit temporarily. It will be exhibited at the hotel until December 16.

"@placeholder would be quite ugly if it was not for the fog," he wrote in a letter from the Savoy on an earlier stay in 1900.
