Greenwich Observatory framed ceramic tile has been designed from original artwork by North East artist Emily Ward. All ceramic tiles are printed and hand pressed in Emily's art studio, where she hand finishes every tile.
This framed ceramic tile of the Royal Observatory in Greenwich captures the landmark in a vivid and uplifting palette. The building’s red-brick exterior glows against a dazzling pink and purple sky, where soft clouds seem to swirl with movement and light.
The blue-grey domes and spire rise gracefully above the structure, adding contrast to the warm tones below. In the foreground, a field of flowers bursts with colour, vibrant shades of purple, pink, yellow, and green scattered in playful dots that fill the scene with life.
