Along Petergate
A print of York by YorkArtist's resident artist Mark Braithwaite
In the city of York, testament to its Viking history, many of the streets are known as "Gates" (from the Danish word for street), and the stone gatehouses in the city walls are "Bars".
Low Petergate derives its name from the Minster, which is dedicated to St. Peter. Situated in the heart of the ancient city of York, it was once the Via Principalis of the Roman city of Eboracum.
This print features some of York's well known characters.
Look for Lucy, Mark Braithwaite's signature black cat, who appears in all his York pictures!
