The view across the island of Bryher from Hell Bay is captured in this spectacular John Dyer painting. The Hell Bay Hotel features in the painting with blue agapanthus flowers filling the foreground. Windsurfers and sailing boats add to the narrative and the islands of Tresco and St Marys feature in the background. A couple embrace on the foreshore and two labrador dogs look on as puffins and seagulls fly past. A fabulous painting that captures the spirit and essence of the island.
