Gurney's Fishmonger Backboard - Linocut Print

Inspired by the iconic handwritten seafood blackboards of Gurney’s Fishmonger based in Burnham Market, Norfolk, this limited-edition linocut print by Chris Taylor captures the character, colour and charm of this traditional coastal fishmonger.

From wild smoked salmon and homemade chowder to brown shrimp and kippers, the print closely follows the original blackboard at the shop.

Perfect for kitchens, dining spaces, holiday homes or anyone with a love of the coast, Gurney’s Fishmonger Backboard brings a touch of North Norfolk’s maritime spirit into your home.

Chris Taylor is a photographer, filmmaker and linocut artist based in Sheringham, North Norfolk. A lifelong resident of the North Norfolk coast, his passion for the sea has been shaped by a background in Coastal Biology, years of exploring local waters, and serving as a volunteer RNLI lifeboat crew member since 2000.

His hand-printed linocuts celebrate the marine life and coastal landscapes of North Norfolk, often incorporating licensed nautical chart prints to reflect his deep connection to the area.

Self-taught in linocut printing since 2023, Chris enjoys the meditative process of carving lino to create images inspired by the coast and the wildlife he loves.

Each limited-edition print is an original hand-printed artwork. Individually produced as an impression, every print possesses its own unique character while remaining part of the edition.

Printed onto heavy-weight printmakers' paper using water based relief inks, each is supplied unframed in a flat envelope, backed with 2mm thick mdf board to prevent bending during transit.

Each is signed and numbered by the artist.
