The painted narrowboats, adorned with swags of roses, romantic castles, and bold geometric designs, showcase a remarkable display of popular art from the 19th century. Passed down from generation to generation of painters, this art form continues to captivate and fascinate even after two centuries, thanks to its enduring beauty and dramatic appeal. It is an art that is simple to start and this guide gives step-by-step instructions.
