A SPECIALLY commissioned artwork based on a painting by Marcus Hammond featuring cyclists against a backdrop of Harrogate’s Royal Hall is being donated to the Royal Hall Restoration Trust.

One of only six limited prints, it will be signed by key Tour de France riders and organisers before being auctioned to raise money for the trust.

The print will be permanently exhibited at the Royal Hall.

The artist has also agreed to donate 10 per cent of sales of other Tour paintings and prints to the restoration fund. These are available through 108 Fine Art, Harrogate; contact Andrew Stewart on 01423- 709108 or andrew@108fineart.com
