Hand-signed Giclée on Canvas Board Limited Edition by Bob Barker.
Marking the 40th anniversary of the Bradford city fire, ‘northern impressionist’ Bob Barker created a painting to commemorate the lives and families affected by the fire. Depicting Valley Parade Stadium and painted in his classic nostalgic style, ‘Take Me Home’ marks a poignant moment in many people’s lives, including the artist’s. His two sons were at the stadium ground when the fire broke out in 1985. Luckily, they weren’t injured and survived, but the fire claimed the lives of 56 fans - 54 Bradford fans and 2 Lincoln fans.
Now in 2025, following a deeply emotional and heartfelt anniversary, a monumental promotion and Bradford being the City of Culture, Barker has painted in memory of the anniversary and in honour of the 56 who tragically lost their lives.
‘Forty years have passed, yet the memory is still very much with us all. We as a city, as a club and as individuals stay painfully aware of the 56 who we lost that day but choose never to forget.’

Giclée on Canvas Board Limited Edition
Given Castle Fine Art's expertise as the UK's leading art retailer, we are committed to the highest standards, especially regarding printing. Derived from the French term gicler’, the term describes a printing process whereby microscopic dots of pigment-based ink are sprayed onto archival-quality paper to ensure the fidelity of a limited edition to an original artwork. It is believed that a giclée will significantly outlast a lithographic print, keeping its vivid colour for up to 200 years.

The artist
Bob Barker
Inspired by the Yorkshire mill towns that shaped his youth, Bob is known for his 'Northern Impressionism' style. Depicting touching childhood, family and romantic scenes, his nostalgic artworks feature a neutral palette of greys and browns with splashes of vibrant colour and a unique inner glow created by the manipulation of light and shadow.
