About the Item

Title: Historic Miniature Watercolor of Bristol Cathedral and School from Canons Marsh by Jack Grunwell, 20th century British artist Medium: Watercolor on thin card, unframed Measurements: 2.75 inches (height) x 4.25 inches (width) Condition: Very good and highly presentable Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work in Bristol, England. Description: This serene watercolour by Jack Grunwell captures a historical view of Bristol Cathedral and Bristol Cathedral School, as seen from Canons Marsh, dated 1898. The softly rendered cathedral towers rise above the treetops, standing proudly over the Avon riverbanks and open marshland. In the foreground, gentle pastoral life unfolds with grazing animals and distant figures, offering a tranquil contrast to the gothic grandeur of the cathedral’s architecture. Bristol Cathedral, originally founded as an Augustinian abbey in the 12th century, is one of the finest examples of a "hall church" in Britain, where the nave, aisles, and choir are of equal height. Its impressive twin towers dominate the skyline of College Green. The adjacent Cathedral School, founded in 1542, has educated many notable figures and remains a respected academic institution today. This piece is perfect for collectors of ecclesiastical architecture, historic British landscapes, or those with a connection to Bristol and its rich heritage. A beautiful combination of history, architecture, and peaceful countryside.
