PREFACE TO THE FOURTH EDITION This compilation began with a letter, dated 1 March 1997, to Penlee House Gallery & Museum, Penzance, Cornwall.The first edition, launched on 2 July 1999, listed 56 names, mainly the core members of the Colony. Eighteen were resident in Newlyn on 5 April 1891, the day of the census. The second edition, published on 5 November 2004, listed 120 names.The third edition, published in 2009, listed 150 names. This fourth edition lists over 160 names and includes the key details of many little-known artists, both members of the Newlyn Colony itself and visitors who came to paint in this remote Cornish fishing village. Fifty-six of these artists contributed to one or more of the four contemporary group exhibitions featuring Cornish colonies. The first was at London’s Dowdeswells’ gallery in 1890. The second was held in Nottingham, in 1894. The third was held in 1902, again in London, at Whitechapel Art Gallery. The other was the Inaugural Exhibition of the Passmore Edwards Art Gallery, Newlyn, in 1895, which included invited artists, such as Sir George Clausen and Lord Leighton. The phrase ‘Newlyn school’ appears in the January 1887 issue of The Art Journal, suggesting an even earlier usage. That same year the West Cornwall Art Union exhibition opened on the same day as the new Penzance Art Museum, 21 September. In its review, The Cornish Telegraph states: “The ‘Newlyn School’ is well represented, most of its principal members being exhibitors”. No fewer than 59 of these artists contributed to the WCAU. Newlyn may not have been as cosmopolitan as St Ives, but who would have thought that no fewer that 12 Cornish artists were associated with the Colony in its heyday, 29 women artists, 25 Birmingham and West Midlands artists, or that 23 of the artists were born outside England. In 1899 the Forbeses founded the Newlyn School of Painting, bringing this survey to a natural close. There is, obviously, so much more to be discovered about the artists who came to Newlyn. With this in mind, I can only hope that this edition will at least prove to be a very useful reference. A Checklist. This final edition is dedicated to all the people who made my life worthwhile. Thank you. Everyone. George, London, 2020. 3 INDEX In general, the names used are as listed in reference books. As with the earlier editions, only where it has not been possible to obtain a certificate to attest to a birth or a death has another source been employed. Please note that where the age at the date of death of an artist is given, the figure is taken from the certificate and does not necessarily reflect the correct age. Nine of the artists, S.J. Birch, Bramley, S.A. Forbes, Hemy, LLewellyn, Moore, Olsson, H.S. Tuke and Waterlow, were Royal Academicians, and two, Crowe and Robinson, Associates. Three of the artists were knighted. The date of election is given with each entry. For a note on ‘Original Newlynites’, please see page 9. 1. ALTHAUS, Fritz B. 1863-1962 2.

    ANNUAL REVIEW 2015/2016 Gwytha Ha Crefhe! 30 Years Preserving and Strengthening Our Cornish Heritage

    ANNUAL REVIEW 2015/2016 Gwytha ha Crefhe! 30 years preserving and strengthening our Cornish heritage In the early 1980’s there was a growing concern that too much of the Cornish heritage was under threat from potential private buyers. Two such sites were Land’s End and Lamorna Cove and there was no organisation in Cornwall with the ability to raise the funds required to save the sites. On the 19th February 1983 a group of people got together with the idea of forming such an organisation with the aim of saving buildings, ancient artifacts and important heritage sites. It was the irst of regular meetings, held at the Royal Hotel in Truro, and the Oficers elected were Acting Chairman The Honourable Robert Eliot, Acting Vice Chairman Mrs June Lander, Secretary Mr John Menhinick, Assistant Secretary Mr Jack Spry and the Treasurer Mr Tim Le Grice. At the meeting it was unanimously agreed that Mr Kenneth Kendall be elected as the irst Patron. Subsequent meetings eventually resulted in the Our Education portfolio includes projects with Primary appointments of The Honourable Robert Eliot as Chairman schools and the funding of transport for class visits to with Mrs Moira Tangye as Vice Chairman, The Hon. Treasurer heritage sites which many schools are taking advantage of Mr Carl Roberts and The Hon. Secretary Mr John Menhinick. due to the dificulty of funding in this area. Mr Jack Spry became the Membership Secretary and a We award bursaries to post graduate students who are solicitor, Mr Robin Bailey, was also appointed. So on the studying Cornish history, and in this we work very closely with 2nd April 1985 the Cornwall Heritage Trust came into being, the Institute of Cornish Studies and Exeter University.

    MORWENNA MORRISON Arusha Gallery | [email protected] | 0131 557 1412 BIOGRAPHY Morwenna Morrison's predominantly oil on canvas works draw influence from a carefully curated collage of archival images. Morrison explains her work as being ‘an analysis of today’s social, psychological and political issues, set within historical context’. Taking as a base the salubrious works of historical landscape painting, the artist interweaves contemporary consumerist images into her painting. In doing so, the viewer is invited to nostalgically embrace the cultural mythos of the classical, neo-classical or Romantic. Morrison establishes a sort of narrative continuum between a world of commercial flight and the colonial verandas of the 19th century (‘n Infinite Summer), presenting her new historicism in beautiful, aesthetic calmness. Morwenna Morrison is based in Penzance. A graduate of the Exeter College of Art and Design’s Fine Art programme (1988), she has exhibited extensively across the UK as both a solo artist and a contributor to group shows.

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. It is the geographical distance to the rest of was needed. Fortunately, the England; the quirk of geology which makes Cornwall Victorian age was coming somewhat longer than it is wide. Surrounded by the sea, and with it the age of steam it gives the county an all enveloping bright light, allegedly powered travel and the artists’ a couple of lux higher than the mainland.
