Description:
This exquisite watercolor by Jack Grunwell captures the Llandoger Trow Inn, one of Bristol’s most famous historic buildings. Established in 1664, the inn is a striking example of 17th-century timber-framed architecture, featuring its distinctive gabled rooftops and historic signage. Located on King Street, Bristol, it has long been associated with maritime history and local folklore, said to have inspired Robert Louis Stevenson’s "Treasure Island" and connected to Daniel Defoe’s tales of Robinson Crusoe.
Grunwell’s piece vividly portrays the bustling harbor scene, with ships docked along the quay, their sails catching the wind, and the lively streets filled with figures engaged in daily commerce. The rich ochre tones of the inn contrast beautifully with the deep blues of the windows, creating an evocative atmosphere that transports viewers to the height of Bristol’s trading era.
A true Bristol landmark, the Llandoger Trow Inn stands as a testament to the city's maritime and literary history. This artwork captures not only the charm of its architecture but also the spirit of Bristol’s historic docklands, making it an exceptional piece for collectors who appreciate heritage buildings, maritime scenes, and British history.
Key Features:
Iconic Bristol Landmark: A historic 17th-century pub, said to have inspired literary greats.
Lively Dockside Setting: Features ships, merchants, and townspeople, evoking the trading past of Bristol.
Striking Architectural Detail: The timber-framed gabled facade and intricate signage are beautifully rendered.
Rich Historical Significance: Connected to pirate lore and maritime trade, adding an element of storytelling to the piece.
A must-have for collectors who admire British maritime history, architectural watercolors, and Bristol’s rich heritage.
