The Barras by Night
Signed and numbered
£35.00
Inspired by Van Gogh’s portrayal of the Restaurant de la Sirene in the Asnieres district of Paris, this painting brings to life the vibrant essence of the Barrowland Ballroom and its surrounding area in Glasgow.
As an iconic entertainment and music venue since 1926, The Barras pulsates with the same energy and liveliness captured by Van Gogh. My depiction draws from the colourful food and drink venues, the bustling crowd, and the historical charm that mirrors the famous Parisian restaurant.
The interplay of bright hues and dynamic figures creates a lively scene that celebrates the rich cultural tapestry of Glasgow’s East End, seamlessly blending past and present in a dance of colour and form.
