Original artwork description:

High above Whitby, and dominating the whole town, stands Whitby Abbey, the ruin of a once-great Benedictine monastery, founded in the 11th century. The medieval abbey stands on the site of a much earlier monastery. The Abbey and Whitby itself was the main source of inspiration for Bram Stoker’s famous novel 'Dracula'.

Painted deep in winter as the sun lowers behind the Abbey.

Oils on board.
