Description:
This evocative watercolor by Jack Grunwell captures the Hatchet Inn, one of Bristol’s most historic pubs, dating back to the 16th century. Located near the city's harborside, the Hatchet Inn has long been associated with sailors, smugglers, and local folklore. Legend has it that the pub’s door was once covered in human skin beneath layers of paint, adding to its eerie and fascinating history.
Grunwell’s delicate brushwork and warm, earthy tones bring the Tudor-style architecture to life, showcasing the building’s half-timbered façade, mullioned windows, and distinctive gabled roof. The lively scene is further enhanced by figures in period dress, a horse-drawn carriage, and bustling street life, evoking the energy of centuries past.
Key Features:
Historic Landmark: The Hatchet Inn is one of Bristol’s oldest surviving pubs, steeped in legend.
Charming Architectural Details: The warm half-timbered façade is beautifully rendered.
Lively Street Scene: Figures and a horse-drawn carriage add narrative and atmosphere.
Unique Collector’s Piece: Ideal for those interested in Bristol’s history, British pubs, or architectural watercolors.
