About This Image

The Varsity – Atlanta Landmark Art Print by Mark Tisdale.

There’s certainly no question that this Atlanta art print featuring The Varsity depicts a true Atlanta landmark. Years ago when I was first developing a passion for photography and visual art in general I set about working on a collection of images that I referred to with the rather ambitious series title, Atlanta Icons. There was little question in my mind that the large V of The Varsity sign should be included. Although I had visited the restaurant very soon after I moved to Atlanta, it’s a ridiculously hard to miss landmark if you’re visiting Atlanta or just trying to navigate through the city on your daily commute! You literally can’t miss it if you take the connector through downtown.

As a matter of fact, this Atlanta landmark print of the Varsity was partially responsible for giving me the motivation to make it as a visual artist. I submitted this print in the My Atlanta photography show in Piedmont Park in 2006. And I was ecstatic when it got the award for best use of color in the show. That was one of my first awards. I think it may have actually been the first.

This Atlanta print has been popular in the years that have passed, especially with Georgia Tech alumni. After all even though it has grown into a chain, the original Varsity is very much associated with the history of Georgia Tech students. But even those of us with no ties to Tech have a soft spot for traditions. And The Varsity at 90 years is certainly a local tradition. I have had countless Atlantans share fond memories of The Varsity – particularly of family they went there with.

I would love to hear what about this Varsity art print speaks to you? Did it pique your interest because you are a former Tech student? Maybe it brings back warm memories of family or friends and times spent there having a chili dog or onion rings together?

I would love to hear from you if you have memories you’d like to share or if you have questions about ordering prints of The Varsity or any of my other work.
