Minstergates , Silent Night.

Prints derived from my original oil paintings.

York has many interesting streets, with equally interesting history. Minstergates is one such streets, Large gates were located here until around 1700 these were closed at night to stop the young clergy visiting nearby Grope Lane (now Grape Lane) of an evening, or so local folklore says, you can only imagine the activities in that place. Here you see it on a on a snowy winters night.

Dark and atmospheric the series depicts the city asleep on a snowy night, the snow on the pavements largely undisturbed, except for the occasional black cats footprints.

Most people buy the Black mounted version of the prints as it seems to add to the ambience, cream mounts are also available in the small and large size should you choose.

The original oil paintings can take months to do and as such I only add 1 painting a year to this series providing it snows!
