The churches in these art prints reflect my years of traveling on both the back-roads of America and in other countries beyond. I’ve often been astounded by the variety of Christian architecture which I believe you will find evident in these vibrant art prints of the churches I’ve seen and encountered. From the vernacular architecture of old country churches to soaring Gothic and the neoclassical styles of churches and cathedrals following the Renaissance, there’s surely a style to suit the mood you’re after.
Ireland seems to be littered with historic and sacred sites like the Irish ruins seen here – Ross Errilly Friary. I would not have seen these if I had taken a bus tour of the wilds of Connemara. It’s simply one of those places I never would have stumbled over on my own, but I…
There’s no question in my mind that London has more than its share of iconic architecture. And the great dome of St Paul’s Cathedral is definitely among that pantheon. Whether you’ve been to London or just seen pictures, that dome is a stirring example of classic architecture. The sight of it rising against those great…
Standing on the banks of the Thames at night is simply magical. You can practically feel the history rising into the night sky. There’s been a city on the banks of the Thames going back to at least Londinium in ancient Roman times. Some think there may have been a pre-Roman settlement but physical evidence…
I stumbled over this beautiful yellow church in the Barrio de Santa Ana on my first visit to Mérida and instantly fell in love with the beautiful shade of golden yellow as well as the unique style of this old church. Most neighborhoods in old Mexican cities are centered around historic churches. In fact the…
I think it was a combination of the incredible skies and the beautiful Spanish baroque architecture of the Church of Santo Domingo de Guzmán that kept bringing me back to this little plaza in the heart of historic Oaxaca. I was never sure if the skies in Oaxaca were extra beautiful while I was there…
After a few visits to Mexico, it seems like Baroque Mexican churches are part and parcel of the landscape of most Mexican cities. In fact, I’ve seen much the same of my visits further south into Latin American and have heard it’s basically the signature style of most of the Spanish Colonial period churches. And…
The Chapel of Memories at Mississippi State University was brought to my attention by one of my cousins who attended MSU. In fact, she’s one of several who did, but despite a family connection, I can’t claim to have intimate knowledge of the subject as I do with many of my college oriented prints. I’ve…
I love historic old architecture. The craftsmanship of these old buildings and how they are adapted to the places they are built always fascinates me. So, I have to admit when I stood on this corner across from the old Templo y Convento de San Agustín in Oaxaca, my first thought was was wishing I…
This starry night in Mexico print is based off of my second visit to Mérida, the capital city of the Yucatán state. Mérida is one of those cities that simply clicked for me. I can’t explain why beyond I love the historic architecture and the people of Mérida are simply charming. My first visit to…
Sometimes the magic of the moment is an art unto itself like this beautiful bell tower print from New Year’s day in Mexico several years ago. It was, as you can tell, a beautiful day and my last in the city of Oaxaca. One last chance to take in the sights before a night bus…
The first day I saw St Peter’s Basilica it was a rainy winter day. The result was, as you can see from this print, that the skies above the Vatican had an incredible texture to them. And the wet reflective quality of the cobblestones in Piazza San Pietro were fantastic. There’s such a strong mood…
The unassuming Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini is probably well known to many have been to Rome. It’s the church with the famous bone crypt. That crypt decorated with the bones of Capuchin monks is said to have inspired many similar ossuaries in Europe. And it’s a strangely artistic use of the mortal remains…
Seeing St Peter’s Dome up close and personal was unquestionably a highlight of my multiple visits to the Vatican while I was in Rome. Walking on the roof and climbing through the interior of that great baroque church dome was both exhausting and exhilarating. And as you can tell from this print, the skies overhead…
I don’t know if there were genuinely a lot of different documentaries airing about the ancient Roman Pantheon right before I left for Italy. Or was I simply ‘finding’ them all because each one further fired my enthusiasm for that trip. Whatever the case, I watched documentary after documentary and read even more about the…
I will never forget my ascent to the top of Saint Peter’s during my trip to Rome. There was an enthusiastic electricity in the air of the crowd I climbed with. Each cramped step inside the dome was filled with huffing, puffing, and laughter. Few of us spoke the same language, but we were united…
One of my favorite haunts in Paris was the Historic Notre Dame de Paris. When you look at this cathedral rising on an island in the River Seine, you are looking at untold ages of history. This has been a sacred site since the ancient Romans built a temple to Jupiter on this island in…
I strolled past Notre Dame de Paris on many occasions during my short stay in Paris, but there was one extraordinarily sunny day when it all came together. I spent hours in and around the old Gothic church on that beautiful afternoon. As you can see from this Notre Dame cathedral panorama print, the sunlight…
Even if you have never climbed to the roof of Notre Dame to see those very Parisian gargoyles looking across the skyline, it would be obvious that this print is of Paris! It only takes a second for your eyes to sweep across the rooftops below and spot the famous Eiffel Tower on the horizon…
During my brief stay in Paris, I stayed in Montmartre at the base of the hill leading up to the beautiful basilica of Sacré-Cœur. Each day, on my way out to explore Paris, I glanced up the hill to that gleaming travertine church at the top. In a way, I guess it being right there…
My flight leaving Ireland for Paris was delayed and the winter days are so short. By the time I got checked in and headed out to really see Paris, night had fallen. On my first stop in Paris, I got to see Notre Dame by lamplight. On a winter night, it felt absolutely magical! Despite…
This rambling old church pictured here is known to locals simply as The Abbey. Despite the moniker, St Albans Abbey is actually a cathedral of the Anglican church. It is known officially as The Cathedral & Abbey Church of Saint Alban. There’s a long religious history in St Albans going all the way back to…
There’s a Timeless London quality to gazing across the river at the great dome of St. Paul’s cathedral. It’s one of those iconic sights that surpasses the lives of people. You have likely seen iconic photos of St. Paul’s rising above the smoke and debris of World War II and it feels like an enduring…
This artwork of snow falling on Claddagh Quay was inspired by my first visit to Galway. We arrived in the city after dark on a winter evening. Shortly after getting settled in, we headed out for dinner and as soon as we hit the streets, dust swirled through the night sky. I’ve read that snow…
This is one of the most famous churches in Britain, Westminster Abbey. This is a church whose history is literally intertwined with that of the British monarchy. Westminster Abbey has witnessed such historic events as the coronation of English kings and queens dating back to William The Conqueror in 1066. It’s also the final resting…
Before visiting Glastonbury several years ago, I had never heard of Glastonbury Tor never mind the legends that swirl around this corner of the Somereset landscape. According to some, the ancient tor is none other than Avalon, the mystical island that features in the legends of King Arthur. And before the fields were drained for…
The proper name of the rambling Gothic church in this vintage style art print is the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity. But to most in Dublin this landmark church is known simply as Christ Church Cathedral. I will always have a soft spot for grand old rambling churches like this one. There’s something genuinely organic…
I’ve read that there are a number of Cotswolds villages like Lacock, in England. These were villages where the local industry died out and the village became stuck in time centuries ago. They could never afford to modernize – a good fortune for the tourist trade today. I have never read the full details of…
When I look at this print of a Seine Cruise boat passing by Notre Dame Cathedral, I feel like there’s a small hole in my Parisian experience. I walked the length of the Seine from just past Notre Dame de Paris to a bit past the Eiffel Tower over and over during my stay in…
When I look back on my art prints from my travels in Britain, this English Gothic church in Glastonbury stands out to me as the epitome of those churches. It seems like most any English village you wander through has a church somewhat along these lines with a large Gothic bell tower reaching into the…
Can you imagine London without the dome of Saint Paul’s Cathedral rising over the skyline of the old city? Believe it or not, after the fire of 1666, Sir Christopher Wren’s plans for a dome over the new Saint Paul’s was an issue of some debate. In fact, for part of the construction, the dome…
