From Newlyn to Lamorna
From Newlyn to Lamorna is an exhibition of paintings by artists associated with the early Newlyn School and pre-WW1 Lamorna Group. The exhibition is a collaboration between two galleries and will be "fluid" as paintings will be changed during the show. One of the highlights is a series of Lamorna paintings by Eric Ward, one of Cornwall's leading contemporary artists.

| Walter Langley RI
(1852-1922) |
Born in Birmingham in 1852 Langley was
the son of a Birmingham tailor and was apprenticed to a firm of
lithographers in the city before winning a scholarship in the South
Kensington School to study design.
During a holiday in the South West of England in 1882 Langley came
across the fishing village of Newlyn. Inspired by the light and
atmosphere of the area he settled there and was one of the first major
artists to make Newlyn his home. Stanhope Forbes arrived in Newlyn two
years later.
The circumstances of his impoverished childhood and hard apprenticeship
led Langley to develop an instinctive rapport with the hardworking
fisherfolk and he was unable to remain detached from their misfortunes.
His best work is considered to be largely that of the 1880s, mainly in
watercolour, though he later turned to oils. His subjects, as with the
other Newlyn painters, were typically Cornish fisherfolk
In 1886 Langley left Newlyn but frequently returned to the area
throughout his life. He continued to paint in the more acceptable
Victorian idiom as opposed to the impressionist style paintings of his
contemporaries.
