About This Image

I would really love to return to Bath some day. Despite already being on my list of places to see, everything I had really heard about Bath revolved around the famous Roman Baths that gave the city its name. What I discovered is that Bath is much more than that. It’s a city full of great old world architecture like that pictured here. In other words, Bath is more than the Baths. Ha!

Pulteney Bridge was an especially fun discovery. Our bridges today are comparably quite boring really, just a way for cars and people to cross. In Britain and Europe, these bridges used to be lined with businesses. The landmark Pulteney Bridge, built in 1773, crosses the River Avon. It apparently has the distinction of being one of four surviving bridges that have shops spanning both sides of the bridge.

This is definitely one of those pieces of old world architecture that would be brilliant to examine and photograph from multiple perspectives. I could easily spend days stalking just this one bridge. Alas, I didn’t have days. So I made the most of my time with this single photo. I really love the human element here. The people strolling the bridge bring life to the scene. We have old world shops with life abounding. Look at all the people on the opposite side of the bridge and of course, the little old lady out for a stroll in the left-hand foreground. All beneath those postcard perfect British skies.

This print is definitely a slice of life from the streets of Bath – hope you think so too!

Note: Pulteney Bridge is recognized by English Heritage as a grade I listed building.

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
