The Official Tall Ships Print for the Falmouth - Royal Greenwich Tall Ships Regatta 2014

Fireworks explode in the night sky above the Tall Ships in Falmouth harbour. Crowds pack the town to get a glimpse of the spectacle. Sailors climb the masts and the whole scene is full of characters, life, colour and fun. John Dyer was commissioned to paint and create this print for the Tall Ships regatta 2014 as the official artist in residence.
