Hove Brighton Promenade Pebble Beach

Print description

This panoramic print depicts the vista of the iconic Brighton seafront. The view looks East from the end of Western Lawns by the Hove Deep Sea Anglers Club. On a clear day, the view reaches nearly twenty miles to the East, as far as Belle Tout Lighthouse which sits on top of the chalk cliffs within the South Downs National Park.

Print details

Panoramic format. Print size 124 x 30.5 cm approx. Signed print from a limited edition of 100. From original ink drawing to which I apply colour digitally. Printed on fine art paper using archival inks.

Naming this print: Hove and Brighton Promenade

By all means the correct way to address this city is ‘The City of Brighton and Hove’. I have changed the order simply because the view shows first Hove followed by Brighton. Also to give it an unique name

In View

This comprehensive view of Brighton and Hove seafront shows many landmarks and buildings found along the historic seafront. Notably you can recognise Sussex Heights, The Hilton Metropole, Sussex Square in Kempton, Roedean School, Beacon Mill in Rottingdean. Even the Blind Veterans building , and further on the hills of the Seven Sisters, within the South Downs National Park,  stands Belle Tout Lighthouse.

Print collection Pebble Beach

This print belongs to a tonal collection that I have named ‘Pebble Beach’. A tonal collection that reflects on the variation of colours and tones found in the beach pebbles along the East Sussex Coast. The pebbles are flint, a hard grey rock that was deposited in the chalk cliffs; through natural erosion the flints are released from the cliffs and slowly make their way through a natural process to form the pebble beaches.
