About the Item

Title: Miniature Watercolor of Victoria Rooms University of Bristol Department of Music by Jack Grunwell, 20th century British artist Medium: Watercolor on thin card, unframed Measurements: 3.25 inches (height) x 2.25 inches (width) Condition: Very good and highly presentable Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work in Bristol, England. Description: This stately watercolour by Jack Grunwell features the Victoria Rooms in Bristol, home to the University of Bristol’s Department of Music. With its grand neoclassical columns and portico façade, this building stands as one of the city’s most recognisable architectural landmarks. Grunwell captures the civic elegance of the scene, complete with gas lamps, formal dress, and a sense of quiet academic prestige. The Victoria Rooms were completed in 1842 and have served as a concert hall, public venue, and now a vibrant academic building. The statue of Edward VII, erected in 1912, anchors the composition at the centre, while the steps and curved railings guide the viewer into the cultural heart of Bristol. Perfect for collectors interested in university architecture, Bristol history, or 19th-century neoclassical buildings, this watercolour showcases Grunwell’s skill in capturing both human scale and monumental form.
