Angel of the North Framed Tile - Poppies is one of many beautiful North East paintings by Emily Ward, local artist. The Angel stands over the poppies in this painting, protecting the community of Gateshead from the top of the hill.
Emily has used red to highlight the poppies and the Angel of the North
, emphasising the reflecting sun behind it. The vibrant sunrise also provides a sense of a new beginning and the start of a new great day.
About the Angel of the North
The Angel of the North is a contemporary sculpture made by Andy Gormley, and acts as a reminder of home for many especially after a long journey. It is Britain’s largest sculpture, and is said to be the largest angel sculpture in the world. The angel, like Gormley’s other work is actually based on a cast of his own body.
Since the Angel first spread its wings in February 1998 it has become one of the most recognisable pieces of public art ever made and a part of Gateshead’s identity.
If you are looking for a vivid and uplifting North East painting either for yourself or as a great gift, this framed tile of the Angel of the North is definitely the one for you.
