About the Item

Title: Historic Miniature Watercolor of Llandoger Trow Inn and Sailing Ship 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 evocative watercolor by Jack Grunwell beautifully captures the Llandoger Trow Inn, one of Bristol’s most famous 17th-century public houses, known for its distinctive black and white timber-framed façade. Built in 1664, this historic inn has long been associated with maritime tales and literary history, said to have inspired Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island and frequented by the infamous pirate Blackbeard. Grunwell’s painting transports the viewer to a bustling Bristol harbor scene, where sailing ships with towering masts dock nearby, and figures in period attire, including merchants and sailors, move through the cobbled streets. The soft, atmospheric colors enhance the painting’s sense of nostalgia, creating a timeless connection to Bristol’s rich maritime heritage. This piece is a wonderful addition for collectors interested in historical British architecture, nautical history, or traditional English inns, offering a glimpse into the lively past of this legendary establishment.
