About the Item

Title: Set of Four Miniature Watercolors of Bristol Cathedral and Harbour Views by Jack Grunwell, 20th century British artist Medium: Watercolor on thin card, unframed Measurements (each): Approx. between: 3.25 inches (height) x 2.75 inches (width) and 2.75 inches (height) x 3.25 inches (width) Condition: Very good and highly presentable Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work in Bristol, England. Description: This striking set of four miniature watercolors by Jack Grunwell is united by the shared presence of Bristol Cathedral, depicted from various vantage points including the River Avon and the city’s bustling harbour. Each piece highlights a different aspect of the city’s landscape, blending its religious and maritime legacies into timeless vignettes. Bristol Cathedral and Cathedral School – A pastoral view of the Cathedral with the adjacent school buildings, surrounded by greenery and historic figures. The western towers of the Cathedral rise prominently behind the treeline. St Stephen’s and All Saints, Bristol Harbour – This dynamic harbour scene shows tall ships docked at the quayside, with the spires of St Stephen’s and All Saints and the Cathedral in the distance. Workers, horses, and figures animate the scene, evoking Bristol’s 19th-century maritime energy. Bristol Cathedral from the River Avon – A sweeping river view showing ships in full sail and the Cathedral in the background, viewed from the opposite bank. This piece balances Bristol’s religious skyline with its bustling trading life on the water. Bristol Cathedral from Canon’s Marsh – A softer composition capturing the Cathedral from the marshland, highlighting its location near the waterfront and former dockside industry. The muted tones and morning light add a sense of calm historic reflection. Grunwell’s attention to both architectural detail and atmospheric setting makes this set ideal for collectors interested in British cathedrals, Bristol’s maritime history, or small-format cityscapes. Perfect for display together as a cohesive tribute to one of Bristol’s most recognisable landmarks.
