Title: Historic Miniature Watercolor of the Llandoger Trow Inn in Bristol by Jack Grunwell, 20th century British artist Medium: Watercolor on thin card, unframed Measurements: 2.75 inches (height) x 4 inches (width) Condition: Very good and highly presentable Provenance: from a large private collection of this artists work in Bristol, England. Description: This captivating watercolor by Jack Grunwell beautifully depicts the Llandoger Trow Inn, one of Bristol’s most iconic historic buildings. Established in 1664, this half-timbered pub on King Street has a rich maritime history, with local legend suggesting that it inspired Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. The painting captures the lively atmosphere of the harbor in its heyday, with sailing ships docked nearby, figures engaging in daily life, and historic architecture bathed in soft light. Grunwell’s delicate brushwork and earthy tones bring the scene to life, highlighting the Tudor-style façade with its overhanging gables and lattice windows. The inclusion of figures on horseback and dockworkers enhances the narrative of Bristol’s bustling trade and seafaring past. Key Features: Historical Significance: The Llandoger Trow is a landmark with literary and maritime heritage. Architectural Charm: The Tudor-style timbered façade is beautifully rendered. Maritime Scene: Ships docked nearby evoke Bristol’s importance as a port city. Atmospheric Composition: The detailed figures and setting create a rich storytelling element. This artwork is a must-have for collectors interested in Bristol’s history, maritime heritage, or traditional British architecture.
