The Saint Nicholas Fortress stands at the northern tip of Mandraki Harbour's pier in Rhodes. Built between 1464 and 1467 by Grand Master Piero Raimondo Zacosta on the site of an earlier Byzantine church dedicated to Saint Nicholas, it guarded the military port and symbolised the island's coastal defence. After the 1480 Ottoman siege and a damaging earthquake in 1481, Grand Master Pierre d'Aubusson added a bastion to strengthen the structure. A lighthouse was installed on the tower in the 17th century; the current version was built by the French Ottoman Lighthouse Society in 1863 and is still in operation. Although visitors can't enter the interior, they can enjoy views from the viewing deck and walk the former moat trail framed by the windmills and the harbour's ships.
My photograph shows the fortress reaching out into the water, with the sea on one side and a bold blue sky above. The wide angle lets you see the structure in context - stone against sea, with the lighthouse sitting calmly on top. It's a peaceful but powerful scene, ideal if you're drawn to coastal prints with a bit of historical weight.

Thrilled to bits with the picture , better than expected
Excellent Print arrived - High Quality - Very professional - Correspondence with Carol was helpful & informative. Would highly recommend Realworldart.
Brilliant customer service from the start with an easy website to navigate. Unfortunately when my order arrived the print was damaged, contacted Carol who sent another out for me straight away and kept me updated along the way. Absolutely fantastic service. Thank you
Very prompt service, good communication, arrived when promised, lovely item! Would definitely use in the future!
Loved this image of our wedding day and was appropriate for our anniversary too...
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.
