Description
An original architectural rendering executed in watercolor with gouache highlights on heavy paper, signed J. Caldwell in the lower right corner. The composition depicts the main entrance to Manchester Airport, featuring a central white tensile structure supported by a red arch bearing the legend Manchester Airport Gateway to the World. To the left background is a red brick Hilton hotel building. The foreground shows a multi-lane roadway with two contemporary 1980s style motor vehicles, one in a champagne metallic finish and one in white. The work is rendered in a professional illustrative style with an atmospheric blue wash sky. The piece is currently unframed and unmounted. A 150 mm scale ruler is visible in the photographs for size reference.
Approximate dimensions: 600 mm x 410 mm.
