About the Item

Title: Historic Miniature Watercolor of Lewin’s Mead in Bristol by Jack Grunwell, 20th century British artist Medium: Watercolor on thin card, unframed Measurements: 3.25 inches (height) x 2.5 inches (width) Condition: Very good and highly presentable Provenance: from a large private collection of this artists work in Bristol, England. Description: This evocative watercolor by Jack Grunwell captures Lewin’s Mead, one of Bristol’s most historic streets. This area, once a medieval religious site, became a bustling center of trade and industry, later developing into a significant part of Bristol’s nonconformist history. The painting centers on a historic timber-framed house, with its distinctive half-timbered structure and arched doorway, reflecting the architectural character of the period. Figures dressed in period clothing engage in daily activities, including a street vendor scene in the foreground, adding movement and life to the composition. The subtle use of soft browns, greys, and muted pastels creates a nostalgic atmosphere, reminiscent of Bristol’s rich mercantile past. Key Features: A rare depiction of historic Lewin’s Mead, showcasing its medieval and later Georgian character. Architectural charm: The play of light and shadow enhances the building’s historic textures and details. A piece of Bristol’s heritage: Ideal for collectors of Bristoliana, British history, or architectural art. Grunwell’s mastery of historical street scenes is evident in his ability to capture both architectural accuracy and human interaction.
