Notes | Walter Langley was the first major artist to settle in Newlyn in Cornwall, and became one of the most important of the colony of artists there. The subjects of his paintings were typically Cornish fishermen and their families. In contrast to the characteristically bleak Newlyn ideal, much of Langley's work tended towards the sentimental. | Presented by Councillor Michael Davis, 1885. |
