Description: This charming watercolor by Jack Grunwell captures the lively character of St Bartholomew’s Gate, one of the historic medieval entries to Bristol. The scene bustles with figures in period dress, a horse and cart, and the atmospheric architecture of old Bristol, dominated by the distinctive gabled timber-framed buildings. St Bartholomew’s Gate was once a key part of the city’s historic fabric, believed to have led to the medieval hospital or priory of St Bartholomew. Grunwell’s attention to the architectural detail—arched entrances, bustling square, and narrow windows—evokes a deep sense of local history and everyday life in centuries past. This piece is ideal for those who love historical Bristol landmarks, English architecture, or vintage street scenes filled with character.
