English Follies canvas wall art - gallery wrapped and available up to 30in x 20in.
The strong architectural form of Penshaw Monument creates a bold focal point, well suited to living rooms, offices, or spaces with a modern or classic influence. Its clean lines and open setting allow it to stand out while remaining visually balanced within a range of interior styles.
Penshaw Monument (actually The Earl of Durham's Monument) is a Victorian folly built as a half-sized replica of the Temple of Hephaestus in Athens (although it only has half the number of columns and the original would have had a roof) and is located in Washington, Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, England. It is dedicated to John George Lambton and because of this Penshaw Hill is credited in some legends as the one around which the Lambton Worm curled itself (however the less impressive Worm Hill nearby has a better claim). Thanks to the merging of various ancient languages, Penshaw Hill actually means 'Wooded-hill Hill'.
In this image, the monument is viewed from a low vantage point, emphasising its height and the strong vertical lines of its columns. A worn path curves up the hillside, guiding the eye toward the structure, while the clear blue sky provides a simple, uncluttered backdrop. The bright light enhances the stonework and open setting, creating a clean, balanced composition.
This stretched canvas print offers a contemporary and gallery-style way to display your chosen image. Professionally produced and carefully hand finished, it combines modern print technology with traditional framing craftsmanship to create wall art designed for long-lasting colour and presence.
Your image is printed using UVgel print technology, producing vibrant colour, excellent detail and strong resistance to fading. The professional lab printing process carries a 100+ year colour guarantee, ensuring the artwork remains clear and rich for decades.
Each canvas is stretched over a solid wooden frame made from European kiln-dried knotless pine. The stretcher bars are milled with a curved profile that minimises contact with the canvas surface, helping to prevent impression marks and allowing the artwork to remain smooth and evenly tensioned.
The frame features finger-jointed corners to maintain structural strength and resist warping over time. For larger sizes, discreet tensioning wedges are added to the corners, allowing the canvas to remain taut and making future adjustment possible if required.
Every canvas is hand finished by experienced framers, ensuring clean folds and precise stretching on each corner. The 38mm deep frame gives the artwork a strong wall presence, while a choice of black, white or image wrap edges allows the final presentation to suit your space.
Stretched canvases are designed to hang directly from the wooden stretcher frame, allowing the artwork to sit flush against the wall for a clean, gallery-style finish. Simply place a nail or screw into the wall and rest the frame over it. For larger canvases, two fixings positioned either side of the centre stretcher bar provide additional stability.

The attention to detail is above expectations. I'm thrilled with what Carol has done, I will be purchasing again. Thank you
Loved this image of our wedding day and was appropriate for our anniversary too...
Lovely soft cushion and excellent print. Very pleased with it.
Thank you so very much the mugs are really lovely and you have kept me informed how my order was doing right up to the delivery, your service is 1st class and I will be doing business with you again.
I'm absolutely made up with the print I received from Real World Art. I went for the Koi Carp image - It's very evocative and they've totally captured the serenity you feel watching Koi. You can almost hear the babbling water! What's more, it's a top quality print, pin-sharp and looks great framed up. Couldn't recommend them any higher.. lovely to deal with.. thank you.
