Original Oil Painting 
Irish Art 
HARLAND & WOLFF DOCKS, BELFAST, N. IRELAND
BIRTHPLACE OF RMS TITANIC

This vibrant original acrylic and oil painting captures the iconic Harland & Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Northern Ireland, silhouetted against a dramatic, fiery sunset. The legendary yellow cranes, Samson and Goliath, stand tall over the docks — the historic birthplace of the RMS Titanic.

The artist, JOHN STEWART uses a rich palette of deep reds, oranges, and golds, with textured brushwork that gives the sky and water a glowing, almost molten quality. The dark silhouettes of the cranes and dock structures contrast beautifully with the intense sunset, creating a striking and atmospheric piece of maritime art.

Perfect for lovers of Titanic history, Belfast landmarks, and original nautical paintings, this artwork makes a bold statement in any home, office, or collection.

The artwork is BRAND NEW and in excellent condition.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

John Stewart was born in Belfast in 1973 and studied Art and Design at Ashfield Boys’ Secondary School, leaving with both O and A Levels in Art.

In 1989, he began his career as an apprentice stained-glass artist at a Belfast decorative glass studio, where he honed his skills in sketching, painting, and engraving glass. By 1995, he had moved into professional signwriting, poster design, and mural art. Over the years, he has been commissioned numerous times by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and community groups to work on public projects, including large-scale murals across the city.

John held his first exhibition in Belfast in 2008. In recent years, he has focused on fine art painting in oils and acrylics, often capturing scenes from Belfast’s early life and rich industrial heritage. His work frequently features the city’s shipyards, cranes, and docklands, evoking both the grandeur and grit of Belfast’s past.

Today, John paints full-time and exhibits his work across Northern Ireland, with collectors valuing his ability to combine vibrant colour, atmospheric composition, and historical resonance.
