Description: | This sunny springtime scene was painted near the artist's home at Lamorna, near Penzance in Cornwall. This particular stream was one of the artist's favourite subjects, and the ducks were specially kept to act as models for his pictures. The bright, impressionistic style of painting was influenced by Charles Simpson's knowledge of French art, which he gained during his art studies in Paris. He specialised in animal and bird paintings. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East art movement artists oil paintings animals art natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
