These world culture art prints are from places near and far but have a common bond in that they depict special places. Some of these places are historically significant places where events have unfolded in the past that shape us today. Others display heritage architecture. In many cases, these are UNESCO designated heritage sites while others are recognized by local or regional governments as being culturally significant in some way. These world culture art prints are great wall art for the historians, be they professional or or of the arm-chair variety.
Is the design of the building pictured here familiar? If so, it’s because the Atlanta Flatiron shares its architecture with the more famous Flatiron Building in New York City. The Atlanta Flatiron, formally known as the English-American Building, is actually a few years older than its famous sibling. This little Flatiron was only Atlanta’s second…
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…
The streets of Cambridge, England, seemed to be one beautiful vignette after another. Round a corner or peek through a door and it seemed there was invariably some classic old architecture to see. If I hadn’t been preparing to bid farewell to England, I have no doubt I would have turned my afternoon in Cambridge…
On my last trip to Boston, I discovered that Salem was an easy train ride away! With it’s rich history, Salem had always been on the increasingly-large list of places I wanted to see. That was in no small part due to Salem’s literary heritage. This print of the famous House Of The seven Gables…
Boston was always on my list of places to see. What I had seen and heard about Boston intrigued me. I love cities with rich, long histories. When the fates aligned to give me the chance to see Boston first-hand, I was not disappointed. On my first afternoon roaming the Boston Harbor waterfront I happened…
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…
I love the opportunity to visit ancient sites like the one in this print. I am very much a combination armchair historian and archaeologist. There’s something about ancient sites like this that stir my imagination. And some of the most ancient monuments can be found dotting the British countryside, like the one pictured here, Clava…
Truly a highlight of my day in Cambridge was ending the day punting on the Cam. It was awesome seeing what the locals refer to as The Backs – the portions of the various colleges in Cambridge that face the River. It’s actually worth remembering that water travel was once the easier route and even…
My first trip to Scotland, I visited Stirling and saw the Wallace Monument from the ramparts of Stirling Castle. I wanted to go and see the monument in this print up close and personal. As it would turn out, it was already late in the day and I couldn’t seem to get any consensus on…
I hope that I never reach a point in my life where ancient prehistoric sites like this standing stone pictured in County Kerry, Ireland, fail to move me. There’s just something magical about being in the presence of something made by the hands of long-ago humans and pondering just what it might have meant to…
I was so intrigued by the streets of the little English Village of Lacock in Wiltshire. It was amazing how timeless this place was. It felt as if you’d turn a corner of the village in this print and find people dressed in medieval garb. It’s amazingly authentic because it is truly a classic English…
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…
This Holyrood Palace print is based on a photo taken on New Year’s Eve day on a visit to the beautiful Edinburgh Royal landmark. The weather was, predictably wet, but in between the raindrops, there was some beautiful light that really highlighted the gorgeous Baroque architecture of the old palace. I loved the contrast between…
Sometimes it seems like I have an excessively long list of places I want to return to in that mythical time called someday. And after five trips to Britain, I just keep seeming to add to the list, never subtracting from it! On the positive, I guess that means I find something to appreciate about…
Can you imagine Paris without the Eiffel Tower? I bet not! It’s probably the singe Paris landmark that is literally known around the world. Show someone on the other side of the earth a picture of the Eiffel Tower rising into the sky and they will recognize it. That’s not an easy level of fame…
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…
There was something truly haunting and beautiful about a cold winter day wandering the golden landscape of Culloden Moor. It was on the golden fields in this print that the last Jacobite rebellion came to a close in 1746. I wonder if I would have felt the echoes of that long ago battle had I…
During my short stay on Inis Mór., I managed to visit two of the iron age “forts” that dot the Irish island, The second, Dun Aengus (or Dún Aonghasa) is seen in this panorama print. This ancient structure forms a half circle against the sheer drop of a cliff. Unfortunately, there’s no written record to…
I read that most of the Gargoyles on our modern day Notre Dame, although historically accurate, are not original. Most of the gargoyles had been lost to the ravages of time and changing tastes. I don’t know whether this bored gargoyle is an original medieval design or part of the 19th century renovations, but his…
It’s hardly a secret that I am drawn to cemeteries on my travels. The older and more beautiful the better. I particularly love cemeteries from the 19th century when they were built as park-like settings. Père-Lachaise in Paris definitely falls into that category. The amount of art like this Art Nouveau Paris Angel that one…
On one of my last days there, I scoured the streets of Paris surrounding the landmark Eiffel Tower. I had a vision in my mind of an image with it rising above the streets of Paris. I never quite found that vantage point. I have a distinct feeling the image in my minds eye would…
If you’ve ever walked up the huge hill in Montmartre to visit Sacré Coeur, then this print may well remind you of the sight that greeted you at the top of the highest hill in Paris. Even though I stayed in Montmartre while I was in Paris, it was a few days before I built…
Five nights in Paris was just a drop of water in the ocean of time needed to explore this grand city. In fact, it was on my last night there that I finally stumbled over the Palais Garnier in person. I had seen its beautiful room from my walks along the Seine but it was…
I’ve said it many times, but without a doubt Paris was one of the most picturesque places I’ve been. There’s just an unusual harmony to Paris architecture. Even though it spans the ages, it all seems to fit together just right. One can certainly tell that there’s been thought to the aesthetics in the old…
There are some places in the world that are just special. It’s hard to put a finger on why, but as you stand there, you just know it. For me, the iron age ruins on Inis Mór fit perfectly in that camp. What wasn’t to love? A gorgeous windswept landscape and amazing ancient ruins? For…
When I lived in Alpharetta, Georgia, one of my favorite walks concluded at the old Roswell Mill Dam on Vickery Creek. It was hard for me to believe that such a beautiful little oasis existed in Atlanta’s metro area. Walking along the trails leading to Roswell Mill Dam it was easy to forget the freeways…
There’s something magical about lighthouses, and if you dropped by to see this Pensacola lighthouse artwork, then I suspect you have the same feeling? And for me personally, there’s something special about the Florida coast. My family was originally from south Alabama so even though I grew up in Georgia, there was many a summer…
When I lived in the Atlanta area, when the weekend came, I would often go for day trips into the North Georgia mountains. It wasn’t just the draw of the nearby mountain landscapes that got me in the car. It was the chance to get out into the little communities that existed beyond the Atlanta…
