Miniature Watercolor of Chapel of the Three Kings, Christmas Steps in Bristol

About the Item

Title: Miniature Watercolor of Chapel of the Three Kings, Christmas Steps in Bristol by Jack Grunwell, 20th century British artist Medium: Watercolor on thin card, unframed Measurements: 3 inches (height) x 3.5 inches (width) Condition: Very good and highly presentable Provenance: from a large private collection of this artists work in Bristol, England. Description: This beautifully detailed watercolor painting by Jack Grunwell captures the historic Chapel of the Three Kings of Cologne, located at the top of Bristol’s famous Christmas Steps. Originally built in the early 16th century as part of an almshouse for the poor, the chapel is one of Bristol’s most distinctive medieval landmarks. The artwork showcases the chapel’s striking façade, with its prominent arched window and stonework bathed in soft natural light. Figures in period dress populate the scene, evoking the daily life and atmosphere of this historic quarter. Surrounding red-brick buildings and a cobbled street enhance the sense of depth and authenticity, transporting the viewer to a bygone era. The artist’s use of subtle blues and greens in the chapel windows contrasts beautifully with the earthy tones of the surrounding architecture. Key Features: A historical Bristol landmark: The Chapel of the Three Kings has been a place of worship and charity for centuries. Architectural authenticity: The composition captures the essence of Bristol’s rich medieval and Georgian heritage. A glimpse into everyday life: The inclusion of people engaged in daily activities adds a compelling narrative to the scene. A perfect collector’s piece for admirers of Bristol history, ecclesiastical art, or British architectural watercolors.
