Spanish City bone china cup has been created from an original painting by Emily Ward, a local North East artist.
Emily has used a warming yellow sky to cast a glowing light over this Renaissance-style building with its distinctive dome.
The yellow in front of the picture could represent the sand slowly creeping up from Whitley Bay Beach.

About Spanish City
The Spanish City
was opened in 1910 and was built as a smaller version to Blackpool's Pleasure Beach. Opened initially as a concert hall, roof garden and restaurant, a ballroom was added in 1920 and then a funfair.
A huge renovation project was undertaken to restore this Spanish themed building in Whitley Bay, North Tyneside, after it fell into disrepair in the 1990’s.
Tunnel of Love, the Dire Straits song from 1980 mentions the Spanish City, this used to be played every morning when the fair opened.
