The three surviving stone windmills on the eastern mole of Mandraki Harbour in Rhodes date from the 14th century and were built during the rule of Grand Master Diedoné de Gozon (1346-1353) [AllOverGreece]. Historical sources record that they were constructed by Genoese prisoners and formed part of a chain of about 18 windmills lining the harbour walls [AllOverGreece, Wikipedia]. Their primary purpose was to grind grain unloaded from merchant vessels, which was then stored in warehouses inside the fortified town. The line of mills extended towards the medieval Fort of St Nicholas, completed in 1464, which guarded the harbour entrance [Wikipedia]. Over the centuries, storms, neglect, and changes in shipping reduced their number to three, which have since been restored. Today they stand as an enduring reminder of the island’s maritime trade and the engineering skill of the Knights Hospitaller.
Photographing the harbour on a hot afternoon, this angled view focuses on a single windmill, standing proud with the sea behind it and nothing but sky above. There’s a solid, peaceful quality to this image – the stone catches the sun just right, and the uncluttered background gives it real presence. It’s a strong, simple composition that works beautifully in quiet spaces.

Looking for the perfect canvas print but worried about fading, sagging, or poor-quality materials? This premium stretched canvas print is designed to solve these common frustrations, offering museum-grade quality that lasts a lifetime.
Each custom canvas starts with a 12-colour Giclée print on finely textured 400gsm artist-grade 100% cotton canvas, ensuring every detail is reproduced with outstanding clarity, rich colours, and deep contrast. Unlike cheaper alternatives, these canvases resist fading with a 100-year colour guarantee, so your artwork stays vibrant for decades.
Framed with European kiln-dried knotless pine, the canvas frames are built for strength and durability. A curved profile design minimises contact with the canvas face, preventing unwanted impression marks or surface cracking. Finger-jointed corners provide natural tension, helping to resist warping over time. For larger sizes, discreet wooden wedges are included, ensuring the canvas stays taut and allowing for easy re-stretching in future years if needed.
Each piece is hand-finished by experienced framers, ensuring perfectly smooth, tight folds on every corner. The 38mm deep frame adds a gallery-style presence to your space, while the three edge finish options - black, white, or image wrap - allow you to tailor the look to suit your style.
With effortless elegance and unmatched craftsmanship, these canvases are ready to hang, built to last, and designed to impress. Transform your space with art that stays as stunning as the day you bought it.

Avoid wet or abrasive cleaning products. Do Not Press or Scrub - The surface of the canvas is delicate. Never use water, cleaning sprays, or scrubbing motions, as this may damage the print.

The absolute perfect image, promptly dispatched, swiftly received. Highly delighted customer. Thank you very much indeed Carol.
Absolutely wonderful photo! I bought it for my grandson but my daughter loved it so much that we decided it would be a waste to put it on his bedroom wall. The quality and detail demands a place where everyone can see it. I would definitely recommend this to family and friends. Thank you for the quick delivery too!
