Description:
This stunning triptych of original watercolors by Jack Grunwell beautifully captures the golden age of sailing ships in Bristol, a city with a rich maritime history. Each painting showcases a different aspect of Bristol’s seafaring past, from moored ships in the harbor to grand vessels sailing into open waters.
The left panel presents a striking view of Bristol Harbor, with tall ships docked against the city’s skyline, including the spire of St. Mary Redcliffe in the background.
The center panel depicts a majestic merchant vessel at sea, its sails billowing in the wind as it embarks on a transatlantic journey.
The right panel highlights a fully-rigged ship sailing under the British ensign, evoking the great age of exploration and trade.
Jack Grunwell’s attention to detail and mastery of watercolor bring these scenes to life, using delicate washes and fine linework to capture the light, movement, and atmosphere of historic Bristol. The elegant gold-trimmed borders further enhance the classic feel of these maritime artworks.

Maritime Heritage: These paintings celebrate Bristol’s long history as a major British port.
