Piccadilly At Night – London Art Print

Description

Piccadilly At Night – London Art Print by Mark Tisdale.

This London art print features Piccadilly at night. It’s based on photos taken on my last night in London years ago. One of my rituals on any trip to London became one last wander in Piccadilly circus, a sort of farewell to a city I loved. The view in this artwork is of the bottom of Regent St where it comes into Piccadilly. The front of the double-decker bus is reflecting the massive billboards that dominate Piccadilly Circus. The building on the right was formerly the County Fire Office. It was part of the original Regent St when it was designed by John Nash in 1819, but the street was completely redeveloped in the early 20th century. Apparently this building looks a lot like the original that stood there, particularly the lower open arcade. I love the scale of it in this scene.

But most of all I love seeing this touristy hub of London at night because it reminds me of my much-loved trips to London. How about you? Does this remind you of a night with friends or someone special in London? I hope you’ll take a moment to share your thoughts both about the subject of this print as well as what attracts you to this London art print?
