The photograph

Letters from the Landscape

I needed a photograph of Inch Beach. That's the honest truth of it. I'd just opened the gallery in Killarney in 2011, and you can't sell photographs of Kerry without Inch on the wall. Families carry that place with them, generation after generation.

The trouble was, I'd been there several times and never come away with anything worthwhile. From the strand itself, it's pleasant enough, but you lose the scale entirely. That remarkable sand spit pushing out into Dingle Bay, the curve of it, the way the waves arrive in long parallel lines mirroring the shape of the shore. None of that reads from sea level. So I drove partway up the hillside until I found a vantage point that opened everything up.

Kerry weather was doing several things at once, as it does. A squall building over the Slieve Mish mountains, heavy cloud pressing down across the bay, and then this break of brightness off to the right catching the surface of the water and lighting up the sand. The green-grey Atlantic, white lines of surf advancing in formation, dune grass in the foreground. In a large print you can pick out individual surfers and walkers on the strand.

I've returned many times since but never bettered this one. Sometimes the first real attempt at a place, when you're seeing it fresh and with a bit of urgency, produces something you spend years trying to match!

Every print

  • Made to order

    Every print is made to order: printed, checked, signed, and packaged for you individually.

  • Hand-signed

    Every print is signed. Unframed and framed prints are signed and titled by hand on the white border beneath the photograph.

  • Archival

    Archival inks on museum-grade materials. Unframed and framed prints are Giclée prints on cotton rag paper.

  • Safe arrival

    Prints are well-packaged, tracked and insured. If one arrives damaged, I'll replace it at no cost.

Before you buy

When will it arrive?

You'll get an email with tracking as soon as it ships. If it's for a date, a birthday, an anniversary or a new home, add a note at checkout or email me at info@petercox.ie. I'll do my best to prioritise it and give you a realistic timeline.

What does shipping cost?

I ship worldwide, and every print from Exhibition size up goes free to Ireland, the UK and Europe. Studio prints and books carry a small charge, and the cost for the size you've chosen is shown under the Add to Cart button. The full table is on our Shipping page, and you'll see the exact cost at checkout before you pay. Every parcel is tracked and insured. Within the EU there's no customs duty; outside it, any import duty or tax is the buyer's to pay.

Does the size include the frame?

Yes. A framed size is the whole frame, edge to edge: 3 inches bigger each way than the print inside it. An unframed size is the sheet of paper, including the white border where I sign and title each print by hand. Canvas and Floating Panel sizes are the face of the piece.

Which finish should I choose?
  • Unframed Museum-quality Giclée print on archival cotton rag paper. Choose your own frame.
  • Framed Black wood frame, glazed with acrylic so it travels safely, with a mount on Exhibition and Feature sizes. Ready to hang.
  • Canvas Gallery-wrapped canvas.

★★★★★Inch Beach
I purchased the gallery sized frame photo of Inch Beach from Peter as an engagement present for my niece and her fiancé as they had gotten engaged there. They were over the moon. It is a beautifully framed photograph and the service I received was second to none.
