Charles Byrd - 'Steelworks Adamstown' - 1953

Charles Byrd - 'Steelworks Adamstown' - 1953 - The East Moors steelworks at Cardiff from Kames Place, Adamstown. Charles was born in 1916 and reached his 100th year in 2016. His works express humour and the joys and strife of life! He is a prolific artist, having captured many local scenes within his subject material. I can relate to the glow in the sky and to the GKN logo on the water tower as they were my employers at the Castle Works steel-rolling mills in the early 1970's for a while. [206] [459]
