This Long Walk canvas print captures a glorious sunny day in Galway! The weather in Ireland is notoriously changeable and indeed I saw plenty of rain during my stay but when the sun came out it was often to gorgeous effect. And when the sun was out, I loved to walk along the Claddagh and The Long walk. The stretch of seaside known as "The Long Walk" is what's visible in this scenic view of Galway. The exact source of the name for this part of the harbor is not known but it's long standing. And when I say long-standing, I mean this part of the quay was already known by that name when the Spanish Arch was built to allow access to it in the late 1500's. Today the Long Walk is quiet but at one point this was part of a busy harbor area. Today it's so peaceful and beautiful it's hard to imagine a working harbor here isn't it? Idyllic is the adjective that comes to mind for me.
What attracts you to this sunny day in Galway canvas print? Do you have fond memories of The Long Walk from a visit or from living in Galway? Or is it simply down to the colorful Irish seaside scene?

Canvas Prints - Product Information
Stretched canvas prints are a great choice for decorating your home or office. Canvas art is a classic choice that is at home in traditional and modern decor alike.
After the purchase of your canvas print, it is made to your order. The artwork is printed on an acid-free poly/cotton blend canvas. The use of archival inks and substrate means that your canvas art print should last a lifetime without fading or loss of color.
When ordering your print, you have a choice between glossy and matte finishes. While I ordinarily love matte finishes on prints, I do like the sheen that comes on glossy canvas prints. Ultimately I would suggest letting the amount of light in your space guide your choice. In a brightly lit environment, I would lean towards a matte finish to reduce the chance of glare.
There are three wrap styles to choose from for canvas prints. The mirrored wrap choice mirrors and extends the image to the sides of the canvas wrap (without losing any of the original artwork on the front). The majority of the time I would suggest this is the best choice. The other two options are a solid black wrap or white wrap. You can see a preview of each option when selecting wrap color.
After printing, the canvas is stretched over and secured to a wooden frame of 1.5" by 1.5" stretcher bars. The entire production process takes from 10 to 15 business days. Your artwork will arrive in sturdy packaging. The hanging wire will be attached and all hardware necessary to hang your canvas print will be included. Canvas prints are a great ready-to-hang option.
