Description: | This is one of a group of sketches of Cullercoats fishermen, drawn by Henry Perlee Parker in 1834. The red-faced middle-aged man dressed in fisherman's waders and a tall hat is Bob Mills, Senior. His son was also a fisherman in the village. Portraits were one of the specialities of Parker, who was a leading painter in Newcastle from 1815 to 1841. He was also known for his pictures of scenes of life on the coast and in the city. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | work art movement artists living in the North East watercolours clothes art North East artists men people | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
