Coastal Prints

The coast has inspired artists for as long as art has existed — the particular quality of coastal light, the ever-changing relationship between land and sea, the human drama of harbours and fishing villages, and the elemental power of the ocean itself. Coastal wall art brings all of this into the home.

Types of Coastal Prints

• Seascape photography — the coast captured by skilled photographers: dramatic waves, morning mist on flat water, sunset over the horizon, storm light over cliffs. The photographic tradition in coastal art has produced extraordinary work.
• Harbour and fishing village illustration — watercolour and painted coastal scenes, from working harbours to quiet coves. The watercolour tradition in coastal art has centuries of history in British painting.
• Lighthouse art — lighthouse illustration and photography. Lighthouses have a particular symbolic resonance — guidance, safety, the edge of the known — that makes them among the most emotionally resonant coastal subjects.
• Vintage travel and coastal posters — the golden age of British railway and coastal tourism produced extraordinary poster art for the seaside resorts of England and Wales.

Coastal Interiors

Coastal prints suit any interior with a connection to the sea — whether that is a beachside home or a city apartment whose owner longs for the coast. The palette of coastal art (pale blues, sandy neutrals, white, grey-green) is naturally calming and creates a sense of air and space in any room.

Sizes and Framing

Coastal prints are available in seven sizes from 21x30cm to 100x150cm, framed or unframed. All produced on 230gsm matte art paper with archival inks.
