Limited edition print of the Liverpool Docks and The Liver Building
£120
45cm x 31cm giclee print.
The City of Liverpool dates back to 1207 in the reign of King John and things must have moved pretty fast as in 1235 they built a castle. It’s long gone now but stood on the site of the Victoria monument which I’ve included in my painting.
The port of Liverpool’s greatest growth period really began in the 18th century with the building of modern docks that could service transatlantic trading. During the 19th century things really took off due to the growth of the British empire. This culminated with the building of The Albert Dock in 1846.
The Royal Liver Building
Along the way a several notable buildings were constructed including The Royal Liver Building which is the large building in the centre of the painting.
It was one of the fist buildings in the world built using reinforced concrete. It was opened in 1911 and was the headquarters of the Royal Liver Assurance Group, this being an organisation set up in 1850 to provide local people with assistance, should they lose a wage earning relative.
