Top Ten Sunset Canvas Prints

We have a range of fine artists and landscape photographers profiled in our online galleries, and whilst their collections of canvas prints are diverse in style - many do take inspiration from sunrises and sunsets. Those special times of day when the sun rises or sets, casting rich, warm colours onto the clouds and earth to dramatic effect.

We've selected ten of the best sunset canvas prints (with some sunrises in too!) from our artists. From stylised, radiating sunsets to crisp, warm sunrises reflecting onto crystal clear water, it is the subject that unites our artists more than any other. Given the beauty they can deliver, it is no surprise that artists have been inspired by the rising and setting of the sun for many centuries. And our artists are no different.

In no particular order, here area our top ten sunset canvas art prints.

Watercolours - Sunrise Canvas Print - From £50 by Kevin Day

A cool sunrise canvas print that shows a gentle glow on the clouds as early morning mist clings to an emerging, reflective lake surface.

Wallsend Cranes at Night - Sunset Canvas Print - From £75 by Barbara Maskrey

The last rays of a watery sun reflect on the waters of the river Tyne, silhouetting the great, but sadly idle cranes on the riverbank.

Lakeland Robin - Sunset Canvas Print - From £50 by Brian Kerr

The dying rays of the sun illuminate the surface of this famous Lake District location, as a robin settles on a nearby rock looking for food before roosting for the night.

Estuary Sunset - Sunset Canvas Print - From £105 by Stephen Warnes

The tidal channels glimmer with late evening sunlight, which also casts a warm glow on the estuary sands. This beautiful fine art canvas print shows the Kent Estuary in the south of Cumbria, as it flows towards Morecambe Bay.

The Kasbah - Sunset Canvas Print - From £60 by David Taylor

The beauty of nature and the beauty that man can produce sit side by side in this amazing photography canvas print from David Taylor.

The Blinking Eye - Sunset Canvas Print - From £50 by Brian Kerr

The sun sets just over Newcastle's 'new' castle, reflecting a streak of shimmering gold onto the water of the Tyne, beneath the magnificent Gateshead Millennium bridge.

 Not an African Sunrise - Sunrise Canvas Print - From £50 by Kevin Day

This fiery scene in not as it would appear - a sunrise in the African savannah. In fact it is the much more modest countryside of Berkshire - and no less beautiful because of that.

Sunset Sligo - Sunset Canvas Print - From £105 by Stephen Warnes

The west coast of Ireland splendidly illuminated by the evening sun, dancing with a myriad of colours amongst the waves. A stunningly beautiful fine art canvas print.

Kippford Sunset - Sunset Canvas Print - From £50 by Brian Kerr

Diffuse pastel colours flood the sky and illuminate this pristine corner of southwest Scotland.

Brampton Spiral - Sunset Canvas Print - From £105 by Stephen Warnes
