Description:

Stanhope Alexander Forbes has always been known as 'the Father of the Newlyn School'. His presence as its figure-head, guiding hand and representative to the wider world made him famous but this book celebrates his own work - the paintings he made through a long life lived in and around the fishing village of Newlyn. It marks the anniversary of seventy years since his death in 1947 with the largest survey of his paintings ever produced.
