Fishing village on the south coast of Cornwall, near Penzance, where a colony of artists settled in the 1880s. Their leader was Stanhope Forbes (1857–1947), who was strongly committed to painting everyday scenes in the open air. The school founded there by Forbes and his wife Elizabeth (also a painter, 1857–1912) continued to attract artists of the next generation, such as *Knight and *Munnings.
