The Shambles limited edition print has been created from original artwork by North East artist Emily Ward. Emily's art print is also available framed.
Delicate tones of pinks and soft purples reflect over the medieval shop fronts on this landmark street in the city of York. Emily's sky shimmers with lilacs creating a warming atmosphere to this narrow winding cobbled lane.
Splashes of pinks, yellows and blues add a splash of colour to the garland of greenery on this lovely art print.

The Shambles
The Shambles
is a historic street in York which features well preserved medieval buildings. The narrow street is lined with many timber framed buildings that overhang on the street, some of which date back to the 14th century.
In 1885 it was believed that there was about 31 butchers shops located on the street. It was narrow by design to keep the meat out of direct sunlight.
Once known as The Great Flesh Shambles, quite possibly from the Anglo Saxon term Fleshammels which means flesh shelves, the word butchers used for the shelves that displayed their meat.
