Newlyn School
English group of c. 20 figural landscape painters who formed an artists’ colony from the early 1880s at the coastal town of Newlyn, Cornwall (nr Penzance). Its size varied yearly, but the most permanent and accomplished artists were Stanhope Forbes, Frank Bramley, Thomas Cooper Gotch, Walter Langley, Alexander Chevallier Tayler (1857–1926), Fred Hall (1860–1948), Norman Garstin and Elizabeth Stanhope Forbes, a Canadian, who was one of two women and the only committed foreigner. Continental training, especially in Paris, had exposed these artists to the work of such French naturalist painters as Jules Bastien-Lepage, Edgar Degas and Edouard Manet. While in France many had experimented with the naturalist principles of painting rural subjects en plein air, notably in Normandy and Brittany. Settling in England, they found that Newlyn suited their needs to continue painting in this manner.
