Description: | Tynemouth is visible on the cliffs in the distance in this scene, which was painted close to the village of Cullercoats, near Tynemouth. In this sunny view, John Mole has made the most of the transparent quality of watercolour to allow the white paper to shine through, increasing the brilliance of the colours. Mole spent most of his artistic career in Newcastle. He concentrated on landscape watercolours from around 1845, and was elected Vice-President of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours, London, in 1884. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | North Tyneside artists watercolours buildings and views art North East artists | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
