NEWLYN SCHOOL CORNWALL Pastel ~ BRITISH IMPRESSIONIST ~ dated 1924 LISTED ARTIST

Description: A beautifully rendered hand drawn seascape depicting a group of sailboats at anchor near a seawall, a Cornish coastal landscape in the background, the scene is almost assuredly a view of Penzance and it's harbour. This impressionist pastel was executed by William Pascoe, a British artist with close associations to the Lamorna Art Colony of the Newlyn School of painting. The work it is dated for 1924 and is very good sized, it measures 19 1/2 x 25 inches, with frame just a bit lit larger. It is framed under glass in a period frame but will need re-framing with a mat as it has some minor water staining just around the edges from the glass being cleaned. I've not examined it out of frame, but aside from the bit of edge staining, it seems to be in excellent condition. William Pascoe (b.1875) was a Cornwall based British painter of landscapes, seascapes and portraits. He was born in Madron, Cornwall and studied at the Stanhope Forbes School of Painting at the turn of the century. Pascoe lived at 6 Wellington Terrace, Penzance. In 1907, C. Lewis Hind published "Days in Cornwall (Methuen & Co) and William Pascoe provided sixteen coloured illustrations for the book with such subjects as Lanyon Quoit, Newlyn Slip, St Michael's Mount, A Night View of the Island, St Ives and Trencrom Hill. This William Pascoe is not to be confused with the earlier William Pascoe of Plymouth actively painting landscapes in the 1840s. The Walker Art Gallery museum of Liverpool possesses a 1933 oil portrait of the artist William Pascoe by Stanhope Alexander Forbes (1857–1947) https://www.artuk.org/discover/artworks/portrait-of-an-artist-william-pascoe-98194
