There are picturesque harbours and grand country houses set in vast acreages. There are impressive landmarks from the past such as Tintagel Castle, St Michael’s Mount and more standing stones and Neolithic sites than you can shake a stick at. They exist happily alongside the present day futuristic domes of Eden, the stately grey bulk of Tate St Ives, old Mine chimneys (sensibly bestowed with World Heritage status) and the spoil heaps of the clay pits near St Austell. 35 BEST OF CORNWALL 2020 However there is more to Cornwall’s appeal than It was clear that luck landmarks.

Thomas Cooper Gotch (1854-1931)
THOMAS COOPER GOTCH (1854-1931) The strategic career choices of Thomas Cooper Gotch illustrate the diverse options available to a British painter in the 1890s. Dissatisfied with his initial lack of success working in the French-influenced naturalist style of the Newlyn School in Cornwall, he eventually became a recognized contributor to turn-of-the- century art by re-introducing into his work academic realist detail, tightly painted surfaces, and bright colours, along with a Symbolist subject matter focused primarily on children. Born in Kettering, Northamptonshire, in 1854 to a family of bankers and shoe factory owners, Gotch broke with family expectations by choosing a career in art. Arthur Tanner. Mr. T. C. Gotch, 1895, Photograph, Somewhat unusually for an English Black and White: A Weekly Illustrated Record and Review, 21 Sept. 1895, p. 379. painter, his art training was international, 1 beginning at Heatherley’s, an independent drawing academy in London (1876–1877; 1878) and continuing at the Koninklijke Academie in Antwerp (1877–1878). He then returned to London, to study first with portrait painter Samuel Lawrence (1878) and then with the French artist Alphonse Legros at the Slade School of Art (1878–1880). Seeking a variety of influences and experiences, Gotch next moved to Paris to become a pupil in the atelier of Jean-Paul Laurens (1880–1883). From 1883 to 1887, he was based in London again, finally moving more permanently to Newlyn in 1887 to participate in its art colony. A break with the dominant Newlyn style earned Gotch a measure of prominence in the 1890s, and he exhibited internationally at the Columbian Exposition in Chicago (1893); the Paris Salon (1895, medal; 1896, medal); the Berlin International (1896, medal); the Brussels International Exhibition (1897), and the Exposition Universelle de Paris (1900, hon.

British Canvas, Stretcher and Panel Suppliers' Marks. Part 12, England Outside London
British canvas, stretcher and panel suppliers’ marks. Part 12, England outside London This guide surveys suppliers’ marks and labels on the reverse of picture supports. This part is devoted to suppliers in England excluding London. Marks relating to framing, restoration and picture dealing are not treated here. Part 14, devoted to restorers, includes the canvas stamps of R.W. King (Yarmouth and Norwich) and J.R. Taylor (Manchester). Several of the suppliers bought in materials from larger companies and applied their own label or stamp, often quite small. Examples include Keet (on a Roberson support), Mason (Ackermann & Co and Roberson & Miller), Lanham, Norton and Whitehead (Winsor & Newton), Tovey and Whitehead (G. Rowney & Co). Measurements of marks, given where known, are approximate and may vary according to the stretching or later conservation treatment of a canvas or the trimming of a label. Links are given to institutional websites where the dimensions of works can be found. For individual suppliers, see the database, British artists' suppliers, 1650-1950. Square brackets are used to indicate indistinct or missing lettering in transcripts, with readings sometimes based on other examples. Compiled by Jacob Simon, January 2019, updated February 2020, and based on the pioneering work of Cathy Proudlove and the suppliers’ database created by Jacob Simon.

Cornwall Artists Index
6/29/2014 Arthur HAYWARD | cornwall artists index cornwall artists index Arthur HAYWARD 1889—1971 Born at Southport, Lancashire, Hayward studied architecture at South Kensington but gave it up for painting, and subsequently studied at the Warrington School of Art and under Stanhope FORBES (/cornw all-artists/stanhope-forbes) at Newlyn. During WWI he served with Royal Field Artillery, and returned to Newlyn, being addressed as Captain Hayward. He joined the Committee of the NSA (/cornw all-artists/nsa) , serving specifically on the Entertainments sub-committee, as his organisation skills were well known. After working at Newlyn and Paul, he moved to St Ives, and established a St Ives School of Painting (c1924) of which he was the named Principal - not the same School of Painting now in existence, begun in the 1930s with Leonard John FULLER (/cornw all-artists/leonard-john-fuller) in charge. He worked from Treveneth and Shore Studio (Illus, Tovey, p110), and played an important role in STISA (/cornw all- artists/stisa) . After 1932 he refused to have anything more to do with that organisation, but continued to play a part in St Ives and Newlyn's artistic life through the formation of an exhibiting set calling themselves the CORNWALL GROUP. The HARVEYS (Harold HARVEY (/cornw all-artists/harold-harvey) & Gertrude HARVEY (/cornw all-artists/gertrude-harvey) ), the PROCTERS (Ernest PROCTER (/cornw all-artists/ernest-procter) & Dod PROCTER (/cornw all-artists/dod-procter) ), Hugh GRESTY (/cornw all-artists/hugh-gresty) , Alison ROSE and Midge BRUFORD (/cornw all-artists/midge-bruford) were those who banded together for some years.

Exhibited: Royal Academy, Summer Exhibition, 1891, no.751 (illustrated Summer Exhibition at the Royal Academy, and the uncertainty about whether a painting would be accepted or where it was to be hung caused a good deal of anxiety. Hall exhibited there for the first time in 1887 and in 1890 showed a painting of Porlock, now lost, which was 'shamefully skied right up at the top'. In their catalogue of the 1979 exhibition of 'Artists of the Newlyn School', Fox and Greenacre write that 'it is tempting to regard this lost landscape as one of the first mature landscapes for which he is now justly best known. Paintings such as inThe End of the Dayin, inThe Ploughin and inThe Drinking Poolin of 1891 (date of exhibition),1896 and 1898 have the same scale and relationship of figures and landscapes as such works as Stanhope Forbes' own inThe Drinking Placein of 1900. The difference is the mellower mood, the more emphatic sentiment and the subtle evanescent tints of English Impressionism of George Clausen and H.H.La Thangue'. In the late 1880s, Hall began to spend more time at Porlock near Minehead in Somerset, and it is likely that the 'The End of the Day' was painted there.

Imagining the Fishing: Artists and Fishermen in Late Nineteenth Century Cornwall1
Rural History (2001) 12, 2, 159-178. © 2001 Cambridge University Press 159 Printed in the United Kingdom Imagining the Fishing: Artists and Fishermen in Late Nineteenth Century Cornwall1 BERNARD DEACON Department of Lifelong Learning, University of Exeter, Exeter, UK. Abstract The focus of postmodernist historians on language and representation clashes with the more traditional approach of the social historian to material structures and processes. This article adopts the suggestion of Wahrman that a 'space of possibilities' exists where these apparently competing perspectives might be connected. The concept of a 'space of possibilities' is pursued through a case study of a marginal group, the fishing communities of west Cornwall in the late nineteenth century. The article explores points of contact and contrast between the artistic and the fishing communities, between the painterly gaze and the subjects of that gaze. It is proposed that, while the artistic colonies and their representations might be explained as a result of discourses reproduced in the centre, their specific choice of location in Cornwall can also be related to the local economic and social history that granted them a space of possibilities. Researchers in the social and human sciences have increasingly looked towards the 'margins' over the past two decades. The 'othering' of people and places in the margins and the deconstruction of that 'othering' has been explored with a growing fascination.2 This interest in the 'margins' has been vigorously fanned by the winds of
