About this event
In the period prior to 1914, the St Ives art colony attracted numerous foreign artists, producing a fascinating inter-change of influences between them and the British residents of the colony.
In particular, St Ives developed an international reputation as a centre for the practice and teaching of marine painting with the Australian, Charles Bryant, dubbing it ‘the Mecca of the seascapist’.
This resulted in the colony playing host to artists who would go on to become the leading marine artists of their respective countries having experienced career-changing influences in St Ives. Leading art historian David Tovey gives a fascinating insight into the story. Check out his website stivesart.info
