by Jack Grunwell, 20th century British artist
Medium: Watercolor on thin card, unframed

Description:
This charming watercolor painting by Jack Grunwell beautifully captures the historic Shakespeare Inn and Temple Church Leaning Tower in Bristol. The artist masterfully depicts the Tudor-style timber-framed buildings, bustling figures, and the famous leaning tower of Temple Church, which has tilted at an angle since the 14th century.
Key Features:
Historic Subject: The Shakespeare Inn was a well-known coaching inn in Bristol, standing near the ruins of Temple Church, which was originally built by the Knights Templar.
Leaning Tower of Bristol: The Temple Church tower, known for its noticeable tilt, is one of Bristol’s most fascinating architectural quirks, often compared to the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Tudor and Medieval Architecture: The half-timbered Shakespeare Inn and adjacent buildings are depicted in fine detail, showing the character of old Bristol.
Atmospheric Composition: The warm tones of the buildings contrast with the cool blue sky, while the busy street scene with figures, horses, and carts brings the painting to life.
This historical watercolor is perfect for collectors of British cityscapes, architectural heritage, and Bristol history. A timeless piece that showcases the rich medieval and Tudor influences that shaped Bristol’s architectural identity.

ABOUT THE ARTIST: Lu Haskew 1921-2009
"Life is good to me. Being able to go to my studio five days weekly and paint for several hours, living in a supportive community, having family and friends who encourage me--all have contributed to helping me become an artist. Being fortunate to study with some of the artists I admire has kept me painting from the garden, people and my favorite things. With the support of galleries, teaching and doing demos, how could I do anything else? My goal is to try to be the best I can be by always being a student, looking for new ideas and stretching my horizons."
Upon retirement from a 33-year teaching career, Lu rented a studio in Loveland and began concentrating on
her oil and watercolor painting. Learning from artists she had followed and admired throughout the years
her painting became a full time career. Since 1992, she has studied with renowned painters Richard
Schmid, Clyde Aspevig, Joyce Pike, and others at the Scottsdale Art...
