Empire Windrush London Art Print by Eye for London Prints, celebrating a generation that helped built Britain.

As an immigrant myself, Brixton was where I felt the most at home. I used to spend days wandering about the Village, and the adjoining Windrush Square. It's home to the Black Cultural Archives, the only national heritage centre dedicated to collecting, preserving, and celebrating the histories of African and Caribbean people in Britain. The ship HMT Empire Windrush arrived at the Port of Tilbury on 21 June 1948 and its passengers disembarked a day later. The ship carried 492 Caribbean migrants, many of them veterans of the Second World War. The ship and its passengers have a symbolic status as the start of the Windrush Generation. Windrush Day is celebrated on June 22nd every year, to celebrate this historic event.

We currently ship to the UK via Royal Mail 48 delivery.

We are hoping to expand our shipping options to include international customers very soon.

MEET THE MAKER
Eye for London Prints

I moved to London in 2014, embarking on my first adventure living in a new country. Without a job and feeling completely lost, I began exploring the city on my bicycle, stopping to sketch various streets, buildings, and markets. Through documenting my journey in design, I rediscovered my roots, right here in South London. Brixton, where it all began, reminded me so much of home in Mumbai.

As a migrant, I found endless inspiration around me. Many of my illustrations reflect themes of migration, multicultural markets, and diversity. I'm particularly fascinated by the architecture in London estates, designed to promote integration and community.
