Irish Boat On The River Shore – Galway Metal Print

Description

Irish Boat On The River Shore – Galway Metal Print by Mark Tisdale.

This original Galway metal print features a little Irish boat on the river shore. This is based on a photo I took on a sunny winter day during my stay in Galway some years ago. With Galway on the seaside and with the River Corrib running through to the bay, I spent a lot of time on the waterside. I felt called there but I was rarely alone so I suspect most feel that way. On this particular sunny day the cloud streaked blue skies were deeply reflected in the River Corrib. It was such a striking contrast to the orange/yellow reeds on the river shore.

And then I spotted this little Irish boat resting on the bank. It didn’t look like it had been used recently but during my time in Galway I saw kayakers out on the river so I can only say those particular Irish people were made of sterner stuff than I am! Whatever the case, my impression of this boat was that it was patiently waiting for the spring/summer to return once more. But it was basking in the sun for sure. This is one of those scenic views of Ireland that makes me smile every time. The cheerful colors are warming and it reminds me how much I liked Galway, a city with a view.

What attracts you to this particular Galway metal print? Is your interest related to Galway or simply the colors and general subject matter of the little Irish boat on the river shore? I hope you might share your thoughts about it.
