The subject of this Galway art print is the beautiful waterfront area known as The Long Walk. I've read various explanations for this name and none of them seem to be related to the length of the waterfront. Some seem to think it's a corruption of an Irish word into English. Others think it's related to the history of Spanish traders in Galway. So again, probably a word or phrase in another language. Whatever it's name may mean, it's a beautiful place that I returned to again and again during my stay in Galway. I loved sight of those colorful houses lining the seaside.
This panoramic view of the harbor area is among my most popular Galway art prints. I think it captures the spirit and beauty of Galway. And certainly this view of The Long Walk is familiar to most anyone who has visited Galway - never mind lived there. Even though I only visited, I felt a kinship with this place that makes these prints extra special to me.
